Changing the background color for the login screen

1 January 2001 by Snakefoot | Comment » | Trackback Off
If you have become tired of the standard color on you background at login then this might be the thing for you.

Edit the registry and add/update this (STRING):

[HKEY_USERS \.DEFAULT \Control Panel \Colors]
Background="58 110 165" (default)

The colour is configured using these settings:

Color RedGreenBlue
white 255255 255
Red 2550 0
Yellow 255255 0
Green 0 255 0
Cyan 0 255 255
Blue 0 0 255
Magenta2550 255
Black 0 0 0

One can also change the background Wallpaper for the login screen, just use:

[HKEY_USERS \.DEFAULT]

Instead of :

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER]
