These two screens are shown in Figure A.įigure A When you enter Windows 8, you see the Lock screen followed by the Sign-in screen. When you turn on a Windows 8 system, you first see the Lock screen, which prominently displays the time and date, and then you see the Sign-in screen, which displays the user account(s) and prompts you to enter a password. To begin with there are actually two screens that you see when you enter Windows 8 and neither of them is actually called the Logon screen.
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. 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.
