How do you get the Driver Station to automatically come up?

We, like most teams, have decided to use a laptop instead of the Classmate due to difficulties. However, with the classmate, once you click on the "Driver" user, the driver station automatically pops up... How do you do that with a laptop?

If I am correct, you have to set the account's name to "Driver" exactly for the lock to Driver-Station software.

Re: How do you get the Driver Station to automatically come up?

I looked for an official document listing the steps, but didn't find one.

This thread contains the primary change needed. As mentioned, be sure of your edits as careless registry changes can lead to odd behaviors. There are other changes to make the timed auto-login, but I'm assuming post #4 is what you were looking for.
