Enabling Auto-Login Guest in ggLeap

Enabling Auto-Login Guest in ggLeap

Allow your center to automatically log in a “Guest” account on startup by setting AutoLoginGuest = True in the ggLeap database. Follow the steps below.

🔧 Prerequisites

  • Windows PC with ggLeap client already installed

  • Local Administrator rights

  • A SQLite editor (we recommend DB Browser for SQLite)

📥 1. Download a SQLite Editor

Get DB Browser for SQLite from the official site:
Download DB Browser for SQLite ▶️

🗂️ 2. Open the ggLeap Database

  1. Launch your SQLite editor.

  2. In the menu, choose File → Open Database.

  3. Browse to:

    %PROGRAMDATA%\ggLeap\data.db3

  4. Select data.db3 and click Open.

✏️ 3. Change the AutoLoginGuest Setting

  1. In the left pane, click the Browse Data tab.

  2. From the Table dropdown, select Settings (or the table where AutoLoginGuest resides).

  3. Locate the row with Key = AutoLoginGuest.

  4. Double-click the Value field and change it to:

    True

💾 4. Save Your Changes

  1. Click Write Changes (or Save).

  2. Confirm any prompts.

🔄 5. Reboot the PC

Restart the machine to apply the new setting. Upon boot, ggLeap will automatically log in as Guest.

🛠️ Troubleshooting

  • Can’t find AutoLoginGuest?

    • Ensure you’re looking in the correct table (often named Settings).

    • If you still don’t see it, contact @ggc-support-team for help populating the key.

  • Database is locked / write fails

    • Close ggLeap and any other processes that may be using data.db3 before editing.

  • Auto-login not working after reboot

    • Double-check that you saved the change and that no residual ggLeap processes were running during edit.

By following these steps, your center’s PCs will boot directly into the Guest session—streamlining access for walk-in users! 😊
