Recently I noticed that the Auto Logon feature in Power Toys, Tweak UI does
not stick.

Every time I reboot I have to re-enable this feature.

System is WinXP Pro SP2 with all latest updates. and Tweak UI is v2.10.0.0.

Has MS intentional broken this feature and if so is there away to make it
work again?

Thanks.

No its not broken. I have SP3 and use it with no issue.
 
Re: Auto Logon

I had the same problem in WinXP Home SP3. Turned out (with advice received
from this list) I needed to click Set Password in Tweak UI, even if the
password was a blank, in order to make it stick. I think I simply hit OK on
the password page. All was well after that.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the tip, I'll give it a try. I, like you, don't use a password.
