Hello,

I want to know if it's possible to use AutoHotkey to fill in your password in the Log-on screen of windows.

I need it because i'm using a server through remote desktop, but it's also my MediaCenter. When I want to watch a movie for instance, I have to log on, and fill in my password and so on.. I want to know if it's possible to catch that under a hotkey.

So I want to use a hotkey to re-login to windows when the account is used by a netwerk client.

I don't think it's possible because when using remote desktop windows creates a new session (a new desktop environment) so all hotkeys won't work on it.

Your best bet will be probably to use VNC as a remote control software. OK this is less secure that people can see what your doing on the screen (unless you turn the screen off) but you wouldn't have to put a password in after disconnect.
