CAnt login Help plz

from Stardock Forums

Ok well I just got the program and I changed my logon screen and decided to test it. well what a mistake that was, the screen changed and now there no login fields. The user account and text box are both missing and there no way to revert back. So im stuck at the login screen and cant get back in. Ive tried the double ctrl+alt+dlt twice trick no luck, and Ive looked for the registry key and still no luck. If any one knows how to fix this please help, if nothin I guess im stuck with refomating and reinstalling windows 7 which i definately DONT want to do.

About the only thing I can think of is try rebooting and going into safe mode.  Once there see if you can logon, if so then change the logon back to what it was.  Good luck.

You could try the ODNT Zapper file to see if that will remove the Logon Studio. Not sure if this will work or not.

If not then email [email protected] and start a trouble ticket.

This is the weekend so unless a support tech happens to check the forums during the weekend you may not get a reply (other than the auto-generated ticket number) until Monday.

Post the ticket number here in a comment.

ya tried your program. It doesn't even detect logonstudio. I think I'm screwed, I've done everything i could including hacking way of modifying the registry to allow auto login which doesn't work, I got it to the point where i can open it outside on the login screen using task manger, but the damn thing keeps asking for the SeSecurityPrivilege which i guess only turns on when logged in so yaaa, guess im gonna have to bit the bullet reformat, and call microsoft to get the to reacvtivate my bloody key and go down that looong crappy process of reconfiguring my rig

Start in safe mode, run an Adminstrator command prompt and type in sfc /scannow

 That will restore the default logon as when I have run it, I've had to re-apply my  customized Logon when finished.

Whenever I've had trouble logging on I've used emergency software Offline Windows Password & registry editor tool, You could give it a shot. It's completely free. Just use Imgburn to copy it to a disc or place on your USB drive (if your PC supports USB boot devices). Boot your PC either using the self-bootable CD you just made or USB drive and use this tool to reset your password which wouldn't require a login. From then you can just simply set a password again and re-apply your custom logon.

 

You can get it from this link.

Do a Malwarebytes scan.

Get the trial copy of Revo Uninstaller Pro. Install it.

Uninstall Win 7 SP1 (just the SP1)

Then do a non destructive installation of Win 7:  http://windowssecrets.com/top-story/win7s-no-reformat-nondestructive-reinstall/

Should take care of the Windows side of it.

Use the Revo to remove logon studio you put on. Do the registry scan to detect any probs you might have and clean them up.
