You can execute switches directly from your Guild Wars 2 shortcut:

Right click on your Guild Wars 2 shortcut and select ‘Properties’.

In the ‘Target Area’ field you will see the location of your Guild Wars 2 executable file:
…\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe

Write -autologin after the quote marks with a space in between:
“…\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe” -autologin

Launches the game automatically, if the client has been set to remember the Account Name and Password.

Enjoy!

Missed having that from back in GW1. Just wish there were a way to get rid of the 3s delay.

Kind of makes me wonder why this was taken away from us with the last patch.

For the same reason that they took away the awesome splash page login screen from the beta.. because they wanted to make sure that we read the announcements.

Of all the things that we had and was taken out, that log in screen was the best.. I want it back…

this doesnt work for me… but i also have -testVerticalFov so my target looks like this;

“C:\Program Files\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe” -testVerticalFov-autologin

it does not work… or do i put a space between -testVerticalFov and -autologin?

In addition to the space, try replacing the dash with a slash:
“C:\Program Files\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe” /testVerticalFov /autologin

I found that multiple arguments only work if you use a slash.

Multiple arguments also work with a dash for sure. I’m using multiple arguments with a dash, and they all work. The post you are quoting has no space between -testVerticalFov and -autologin, and only because of that they don’t work. There must be spaces between the arguments, of course.

Indeed. Slash or dash work equally well, but there must be a space between arguments.

Good luck.

Dunno mate, I had multiple args separated by spaces, using the dashes:
-bmp -maploadinfo -autologin

I couldn’t get autologin to work until I changed the dashes to slashes, at which point it worked. I just did a test and reverted to dashes, and autologin stopped working.

For me at least (Win 7), only the slash seems to work with multiple args. The first argument (screen caps as bitmaps) still takes effect with a dash but the rest don’t.

Can’t think of a single reason why this would be the case…
