Unattended Access Password Without Username

On some computers we are able to enter just a password to gain unattended access to a computer in our organization. However, on others, we are required to enter in a username (apparently this is set by the computer) and a password. I have poured through the Control Panel and Web GUI settings looking for the option to remove the need for a username and just have a password (most computers are being used as remote monitoring tools with no human user physically on site) but have been unsuccessful. Any answers?

  • Lorenza,

     

    After going back and forth with their support for a few weeks over email, I finally got a resolution. They let me know that it's a bug in the software. To get the option to enter in an unattended password (User Access Code) without the need for entering in a username specific to the LogMeIn Client on each computer, you have to completely delete LogMeIn for the PC. Then re-download it and you should get the option then. A bit of a round-about solution, but I've tried it on a machine or two since and it's worked for me.
