WEPOS help and Support and autologon

We have obtained a licensed copy of WEPOS and created WEPOS images.
We have noticed that WEPOS does not have any help and support start menu
short cuts and clicking any help menu of notepad/wordpad will not show any
help screen. Is this behavior by design?
Are there registry settings that we need to modify?

How can I enable autologon in WEPOS?

Thanks!

Ultimately, autologon is just a few registry settings. Change them and you
have your desired behavior.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"AutoAdminLogon"="1"
"DefaultUserName"="user"
"DefaultPassword"=""

Add reg...
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"ForceAutoLogon"="1"
 
If you set AutoAdminLogon=2 (as a string value, NOT DWORD) then it will
also disable Ctrl+Alt+Del.
 
I should also note that you can disable CAD by using ScanCode Mappings.
However this will remove the function of the CTRL and ALT keys so may
not be suitable for your application: Follows is an INF file that will
do what you need:
