Windows 7 Logon Background Changer
Windows 7 Logon Background Changer is a free open source software that
let you change the wallpaper of the Windows 7 logon screen (also known
as "welcome screen", "login screen" or LogonUI).
It works with Windows 7 Home Basic, Home Premium, Professional,
Ultimate, Enterprise and Starter, in x86 or x64 (32 or 64 bits). It also
works on Windows Server 2008 R2 (but you are not supposed to customize a
server).
On a side note, this small program is WPF based, it''s a nice
technical demo of Windows Presentation Foundation capabilities for those
interested in WPF. It requires a decent GPU for the 3D animations to
run smoothly.
What does it do?
- It does NOT change any system file, and the program itself does not
requires admin rights to run : it will just ask you to run as admin a
very simple cmd file that creates the required folder and registry key
with the appropriate rights. Any user of the computer will then be able
to change the Windows 7 logon screen wallpaper. You can also prevent
users from being able to change the logon screen wallpaper if you don''t
want them to be able to modify it without administrator rights (option
available by clicking on the "Settings" button).
- It creates a few JPEG files based on the image you want to put as
wallpaper for the Windows 7 login screen, applies the appropriate
cropping and sizing and saves them using the best compression quality
possible.
