If you are using tools like packer or doing your image by hand. You can disable it by changing some values on the registries:

reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /v AutoAdminLogon /t REG_SZ /d 0 /f

Hello,

There should be no autologin if the image has been properly created using the Windows Imaging tools.

If you used https://github.com/cloudbase/windows-... make sure to check the documentation before starting the process.

New-WindowsCloudImage: This command does not require Hyper-V to be enabled, but the generated image is not ready to be deployed, as it needs to be started manually on another hypervisor. The image is ready to be used when it shuts down.

If you are creating an image for VMware, the process is more cumbersome and I suggest to use an already prepared image and not use the VMware image creation process in tandem with the Windows Imaging Tools.

You might be hitting the same problem better explained here:
