    Windows 10 1803 Unattend Autologon help


    Hi,

    I have been working on a "Windows 10 1803 Ent" base image that will automatically login with the built-in administrator or a local admin account. I have added the component to the unattend file <AutoLogon> as well as the Administrator Password and enabled the built-in admin account via a <RunSynchronousCommand> component.

    After sysprepping, I am able to login by entering the password I provided in the unattend file. Any insight into what I may be missing to get it to login by itself. I have tweaked the hell out of this unattend file, trial by fire, and no luck, although I have learned a great deal. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is the unattend file I am using:
