That is what I would like to figure out. It happened the first time, although i reused the source for the subsequent passes. I did NOT however do anything other then an automated install. (err, although the first time i checked tweaks and options in the main, but didn't change anything in them. unless they make a change by default it should be clean). I thought it is not a problem to take an unattended install and give it new settings. But I will try with a non unattended source. Yea, but I checked and I saw it includes your passwords, and the CD key... however i elected to input neither, so I Saw the file was clean before uploading it. file attached. (not last session but saved session, its what i used in my last session). XP_Autoinstall__needs_key_.ini

It is indeed all of my machines, and all my friend's. I am trying to share the nlite love with them. And by many I mean 4 or 5... Regardless, the workaround is EXTREMELY simple... 1. Install. 2. start > control panel > users > delete the two extra users... This is a bug report about there actually BEING 2 extra users where there shouldn't be any. Regardless of who I am the bug exists. the setting calls (aka I am trying to create) 3 user accounts: 1. Administrator 2. Guest 3. User The install creates 5 user accounts (2 extras): 1. Administrator 2. Guest 3. User 4. Owner 5. New User

You MUST have a user account in addition to guest and Administrator in windows XP >HOME<. In XP pro i just have guest (disabled) and The admin user renamed to User (my username of choice IS user...). Also... registry editing? I am talking about making a silent install version of windows with everything preconfigured just right (except CD key which has to manually be inputted) for deployment on many machines. I mean, if the install is already done its simpler to just delete the extra user accounts then to edit the registry.

I am trying to create an automated install for windows XP home OEM SP3. I disabled the OOBE because it tends to break everything up, and have been messing with the settings. But it keeps on creating weird users. I get a "New User". I get a user called "Owner" that i have no idea where he popped from, and I get the user I tried to create, User (as well as the hidden administrator account, but that is blissfully hidden). Any suggestions? my _u.ini file is attached. The three users I create in the users box: Administrator (no pass, can't remove), guest (disabled), and User (administrator group, no password, must have a second user other then hidden admin account in XP Home).
