Restrict Showing Last Logged On Username In Windows
This is a very small security feature that I always implement. This restriction removes the ability to view which user was last logged into a computer by clearing the username box on the login screen.
Location of User Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Policies\System
Location of System Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Policies\System
Value(s) to Modify: DontDisplayLastUserName
Correct Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value Data: 0=Default, 1=Remove Username
If the “REG_DWORD” value “DontDisplayLastUserName” does not exist in the registry path, create it in order to make the changes.
