Updated on December 11, 2020 by Swayam Prakash

Windows 10 has a default mechanism that enables instant login for users. It is known as fast logon optimization. While it is a useful feature it has its limitations as well. If changes are made to the Group Policy Settings, then you may experience repeated reboots on your PC. You may also have to log in more than once.

You can disable this feature if you wish. Let’s say you use a home directory or have a roaming profile to implement the same settings on all the PCs. Then you may disable the fast logon optimization. You can also do it if you use login scripts. Keep reading the guide to know more about this feature and how to enable or disable it.

  • Summon the run dialog box by pressing Windows + R key
  • Then type gpedit. msc and press Enter
  • It will open the Local Group Policy Editor
  • Click on Computer Configuration
  • Navigate to Administrative Templates
  • Now go to System > click Logon
  • Go to the option Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon
  • If you wish to disable it, then click Disabled
  • If it has been disabled previously, then you can click on Enabled

Normally, the computers do not wait for the network to fully initialize during user logon. However, with the changes we incorporated above, the process becomes synchronous. The short logon time happens due to the cached credentials. These are the existing regular users in the network.

Why Does A User See Multiple Login or Reboot

We can consider the fast logon optimization as a background refresh. When the refresh happens, the extensions used for various services demand that no user be logged on to the system at that point in time. To put the changes to effect two logins take place. This means the changes should happen before users begin their work on the PC.

If the user has a roaming profile or is using the PC on the home directory, then also the system requires to go through more than one logon to understand that. So, that’s all about the fast logon optimization feature present in the Windows OS.
