So I'm writing a post install script for my Win7 boxes, and I log in as a local user the first time to do some things that only seem to work from within a user account. I want to check that the domain join succeeded or try it again, but the obvious @LogonDomain or @LogonDNSDomain only show if the account currently logged in is part of the domain - which it isn't. How can I check the domain name from a local user account? If I right click on Computer and go to Properties, it says "Domain" and shows the domain name "example.com"... I want to check "example.com" against a value, but I'm not sure how to pull that value?

Simple script that took me about 15 minutes. I built it for a friend but thought someone else could use it.. Just make sure you compile it as 64bit if you have a 64bit system which most of you using windows 7 do. #Region ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI **** #AutoIt3Wrapper_Icon=HWandHank.ico #AutoIt3Wrapper_UseUpx=n #AutoIt3Wrapper_UseX64=y #EndRegion ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI **** #cs ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- AutoIt Version: 3.3.10.2 Author: Mike Kovacic Script Function: Set windows 7 to auto login using provided credentials. * This must be compiled as x64 to work. #ce ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- #include <ButtonConstants.au3> #include <EditConstants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> $MuhApp = GUICreate("Set Autologon", 309, 127, 212, 132) $Username = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 8, 16, 153, 21) $Password = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 8, 48, 153, 21) $Domain = GUICtrlCreateInput(@ComputerName, 8, 80, 153, 21) $Set = GUICtrlCreateButton("Set Autologon", 176, 24, 123, 25) $REmove = GUICtrlCreateButton("Remove Autologin", 176, 56, 123, 25) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $set setautoadminlogin() Case $remove removeautologin() EndSwitch WEnd Func setautoadminlogin() $a = 0 If RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa", "LmCompatabilityLevel", "REG_DWORD", "2") then $a += 1 If RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon", "AutoAdminLogon", "REG_SZ", "1") then $a += 1 If RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon", "ForceAutoLogon", "REG_SZ", "1") then $a += 1 If RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon", "DefaultUserName", "REG_SZ", guictrlread($username)) then $a += 1 If RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon", "DefaultPassword", "REG_SZ", guictrlread($Password)) then $a += 1 If RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon", "DefaultDomainName", "REG_SZ", guictrlread($Domain)) then $a += 1 If $a = 6 then MsgBox(64,"Success!","Autologon has been set.") else MsgBox(16,"Oops!","Autologon could not be set.

Hi All, I have written some script that scans every folder down from a given directory and determines if any new folders have come into existence. I used it to scan a release server to determine when new revisions of source have been compiled into a stable version. If the script does not detect any new files, it Exits with Exit Code 1 (This is so that Jenkins knows to fail the given job, and not continue to the next job). When I test the code on my local machine, a Windows 7 unit, Everything works normally and the exit code exits as "1", however when I run it on my windows 8 test system, The application immediately returns 0, and then a few seconds later actually runs (I can verify this is what's happening because of the files it generates, and the logging I create.) What's even more annoying is that I have other Auto IT applications that work just find on the Windows8 unit, and Exit with whatever ExitCode I give them. Is there something I may have set in the code that delays it running?

I could not find a User account script on these forums that was satisfactory, a On/Off setting is quite useless if it cant be configured, so i wrote this up. Should work on both x64 and x86 compiled scripts. Windows7 and Vista. Functions: Example: Script:
