3. Using your account name and password, double-click the DefaultUserName entry, type your user name, and then click OK. 

4. Double-click the DefaultPassword entry, type your password under the value data box, and then click OK. If there is no DefaultPassword value, create the value. To do this, follow these steps: In Registry Editor, click Edit, click New, and then click String Value. Type DefaultPassword as the value name, and then press ENTER. Double-click the newly created key, and then type your password in the Value Data box.If no DefaultPassword string is specified, Windows XP automatically changes the value of the AutoAdminLogon registry key from 1 (true) to 0 (false) to turn off the AutoAdminLogon feature. 

5. Double-click the AutoAdminLogon entry, type 1 in the Value Data box, and then click OK. If there is no AutoAdminLogon entry, create the entry. To do this, follow these steps: In Registry Editor, click Edit, click New, and then click String Value. Type AutoAdminLogon as the value name, and then press ENTER. Double-click the newly created key, and then type 1 in the Value Data box. 

6. Quit Registry Editor.

Note: You can bypass this function by holding down the SHIFT key during the boot or logoff process.  

Note: It is also important to note that if the DontDisplayLastUserName value is enabled, the auto logon feature does not function.

Set a copy of the LoriotPro shortcut  in the Startup menu Folder.

Example : 

The Login Name is replace by the user name used when installing LoriotPro. Remember that  LoriotPro is installed by default for a single user.
