Clear Last User Windows 10
This tools clears the previous user from the Windows login screen. I use this tool after remoting in to prevent users from locking my account by attempting to log in without changing the user. I have used this with Windows 10 Enterprise versions 1607 through 1903. I have not tested it with other Windows editions or versions. This tool overwrites registry keys USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Here are the commands in a copy paste friendly format:
REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI /v LastLoggedOnSAMUser /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI /v LastLoggedOnUser /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI /v LastLoggedOnUserSID /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI /v SelectedUserSID /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI /v LastLoggedOnDisplayName /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
