Bat file works on C drive to delete registry, but it doesn't delete them when run on network drive
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I have a .bat file that deletes the login username from Windows 10, so when they log off their name won't appear. I did it by changing the registry:
It works when I run it from my C drive, but it doesn't delete the registry when I run it from my network drive called U from the server.
echo Resetting last logged on username.
set id = example
%SystemRoot%System32reg.exe DELETE HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionAuthenticationLogonUI /v LastLoggedOnUserSID /f
%SystemRoot%System32reg.exe DELETE HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionAuthenticationLogonUI /v LastLoggedOnDisplayName /f
echo y|%SystemRoot%System32reg.exe ADD HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionAuthenticationLogonUI /v LastLoggedOnUser /d %id% /f
echo y|%SystemRoot%System32reg.exe ADD HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionAuthenticationLogonUI /v LastLoggedOnSAMUser /d %id% /f

How did you run it from the server? Also, there's a setting you can set by Group Policy which tells Windows not to show the previous session's username. This would be the correct way to accomplish what you're trying here: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/…

What I meant with run it from the server is that I ran it from my network drive. I can't change the policy because we want the users to have their username in their computers, but as a tech I have to go to their computers to help them but sometimes they lock my account by trying to login thinking they are in their account.

What error(s) or ouput do you get when you run this from the network drive? Have you tried using PowerShell to do this: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/samples/…

Try using the UNC path location to the file so with its full UNC path and file name and see if that helps any. So use something like ...\servernamesharenamefolderscript.bat
