Well, recently I've been hearing from readers wondering if there was a way to change the logon screen background in Windows 8. In Change and customize Windows 7's Logon screen wallpaper, I showed you how to do it by editing the registry and in An awesome tool for customizing the Windows 7 Logon screen wallpaper, I showed you how to do it with the Windows 7 Logon Background Changer.
Choose Decimal as the Base for the Value Data.In the past I wrote a couple of articles about changing the Logon screen wallpaper in Windows 7 and it appeared to be a very popular topic. Edit the DWORD (32-bit) Value and set the value data to anything between 2 and 24. Once created, open this registry key, create a new DWORD (32-bit) Value and name it as “DefaultColorSet”. Right-click the Explorer key, go to New, and choose Key to create a new registry key. Under the Explorer key, you will have to create a new registry key with the name of ‘Accent’. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer In the Registry Editor, go to the following key.
Since this method involves creating and editing registry keys, we recommend that you create a Windows Restore point to revert to the original state, in case something goes wrong.įirst of all, open start screen and enter ‘regedit’ to search for the Windows Registry Editor, or open the Run dialog box, enter “regedit” and press Enter. There is still no way to set a custom wallpaper as the Logon Screen background, but the color can be changed using the following method. In this guide, we will show you how to change the color of the Logon Screen independent of the Start Screen background color, using a Windows Registry hack. However, there are no options to tweak the Logon Screen and it’s set to be the same as the background of your Start Screen. By default, Windows 8 allows you to change the Lock Screen wallpaper (check out our guide here). The Lock Screen and Logon Screen are two different interfaces in Windows 8 the former allows you to app view notifications, current time and date, internet connectivity and battery status, while the latter lets you choose an account for logging in to the system. Even though Windows 8 offers a lot more customization options in terms of visuals than the previous versions of Windows, we have still seen many tools such as Custom Tiles Maker, Charms Bar Customizer and Skip Metro Suite that allow us to customize the UI even further.
