Auto sign-in to local account

I am trying to force login to a local account so that our students can use this (restricted) account for assessment purposes. I am having no issue creating the local account via policy, or setting the restrictions, but I would like this account to be auto signed in on setup so that the students cannot login to their normal accounts where they may have saved documents. I also have a "return to normal" policy ready for when the assessment is over, so the settings would need to be reversible.

Can anyone help me as to how I might achieve this, or a better way of doing this? Supplying especially configured computers is no longer an option (we have done this in the past, but the numbers are getting too big).

Many thanks,
Owen

I have used CreateUserPkg to do this. Then have a policy to send the user account to all the machines. There is an option to set the account to auto login.4e6a72875a2f4ae88952cef94ca948bd

You can get it here https://github.com/MagerValp/CreateUserPkg

Thanks, that looks interesting. I'll give it a try and see how it goes.
