Nope, there ain't no such thing so far.
I have only seen a third-party Tweak Vista ("Tweak VI") for Vista x86.
It cannot be installed (already tried it) on Vista x64.

No. There isn't one specifically for x86 either, though I have heard that
the old version 1.33 works in x86.

Yeah, 1.33 works just fine in my two x86 5782 installs.
Anyone know how to get Vista it to auto logon without tweakui?
Thanks

If you enable the Administrator account so it shows up on the welcome
screen, then from an elevated command prompt do
control userpasswords2

Untic "Users muss enter a user name and password to use this computer."

I think it will then auto logon to an administrator account. I couldn't get
it to auto logon to a standard user account in version 5600. Haven't tried
it in 5728 yet.

Just tested, it works now in 5728 for x86 to auto logon to a standard user
account even with the built in administrator account disabled - just as in
XP.

You're welcome. I think it's the same registry change as in XP. I saw a
thread on this recently, but not sure where.
