    Hi,
    When I start Windows11, the mac username account is displaying to sign in.
    My computer is register under AD so I don't want to use local accounts but only AD accounts.

    How can I do to disable auto mac username account ?

    Click the Apple icon in the top-left corner of the screen and select "System Preferences."
    Select "Security and Privacy."
    Untick the box labeled "Requires Password."
    Enter your Mac's password in the pop-up window.
    Confirm your choice by clicking "Turn off screen lock."

    Greetings,
    Peter

    Thanks for your reply.
    But I don't want to use my macOS username account to sign in under Windows.
    I only need to use my Active Directory account.

    You mean inside the VM? Then create a second admin user and delete (or ignore) the Parallels created user.

    yes,I think he meant that
    Let's study it, because I'm also facing this problem now
    I created a Win11 virtual machine using Parallels Desktop with the user name of jack. Before I opened the virtual machine, I would log in with the account of jack. Now I delete the account of jack and use the account of administrator instead. I found that the default login account of Win11 virtual machine under Parallels Desktop or jack is not the administrator has to manually select the account and enter the password every time, which is very inconvenient, Now I want to change the default login account information of Win11 virtual machine under Parallels Desktop from jack
