On a training course I had a Psycho user. He was nothing but trouble, arrived late, spilt coffee over his monitor and worse still, would not listen to instructions. My purpose was to save them typing a difficult password, after each reboot required by the notes. The problem started when for some bizarre reason, Psycho decided to disable his keyboard and mouse.
After Psycho rebooted his machine, AutoAdminLogon, by design, let his account logon without entering a username and password. His machine was useless; you could use neither the keyboard nor the mouse. The full horror became apparent when we tried to use Last Known Good to revert to the previous setting.
AutoAdminLogon had overwritten the old control set. On Windows 7 the keyboard and mouse driver is configured differently, consequently it no longer supports the above registry settings. No doubt Psycho will find a new way of breaking your machine, and it is quite likely that remote registry editing will be the only way to recover from his stupidity.
