Automatically Login Windows System User In TestStand 3.1

[ic2118]

I have checked the "Automatically Login Windows System User" in TestStand 3.1. However, when I re-start TestStand I still have to enter the password each time. Why is this happening? Both the username and password do exist in the Users.ini file. I am using Windows XP SP3. I have already talked to a NI support engineer and they did not have an answer. Thanks for the help.

Is the name of the user in TestStand the same as your windows login name?

[ic2118]

Yes.

At the very beginning, I initally verified that the users.ini file contained the correct needed information.

Hi ic2118,

Can you move the Users.ini file (C:\Program Files\National Instruments\TestStand 3.1\Cfg) to a new location and restart TestStand. The file may have been corrupted and moving it out of the Cfg folder will force TestStand to create the file again.

Regards,
