Uninstalling and Disabling Easy Login
There are two methods used to disable RGS Easy Login.
1. Using
rgadmin
Tool:
The RGS Rgadmin Tool contains command-line options to disable RGS Easy Login.
This method is preferred over the manual method.
2. Manual Method:
To disable Easy Login without the use of the
rgadmin
tool, delete or rename the
value of the
GinaDLL
registry key. If there is no other custom GINA module on the
system, simply removing the
GinaDLL
key definition from the registry disables Easy
Login. The
GinaDLL
key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\GinaDll
is removed through the use of
regedit
, the Windows Registry Editor. Be certain to
actually remove the key by selecting the
GinaDLL
key in
regedit
and select the
Delete
entry in the
Edit
menu. Once the key is deleted, it no longer shows up as a
key in the
WinLogon
subkey. When the system reboots, the default GINA module,
msgina.dll,
will be loaded by the
WinLogon.exe
process.
If there is a custom GINA DLL module on the system and it replaces the default
msgina.dll
, change the value of the
GinaDLL
value from
hprgina.dll
to the name
of the custom GINA module. To change the value of the
GinaDLL
key, select the
