**The situation/context/intent**

I try to run a task (on windows 10) which activate or deactivate auto logon depending on the NetConnection name (to see if I am home). The script works and is executed, but I guess the task is too late, since auto logon use the pre-existing value over the one set by the script. Or, is it that the script is delayed by the Wi-Fi, which maybe still launching, allowing auto logon to do its things or something like that?

**What I tried**

Well first, I look on the internet, but all I could find was how to activate auto logon and nothing near what I try to do.

Then, on *stackoverflow*, I did found something call **gina.dll**. Turn out, it has bean replace by **credential provider**. Which look like an aventure better avoided and, I think, it is just the interface to logon anyway.

Then I tried to use the event, kernel-Boot id 30, which, should be monitoring the start up process. "Maybe this would be earlier than the default startup", I thought. But, I observe the same result as with "on startup". (Maybe it is the same thing as "on startup".)

**The script (PowerShell)**

```
$RegPath = "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon"
if((Get-NetConnectionProfile | select -ExpandProperty Name) -ceq "The connection name"){
  Set-ItemProperty $RegPath "AutoAdminLogon" -Value "1" -type String
}else{
  Set-ItemProperty $RegPath "AutoAdminLogon" -Value "0" -type String
}

```
