removing Welcome screen

G

Guest

Hello,

I'd like to remove the Welcome screen on bootup. Based on a previous post ,I
added the registry key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\system\

DisableStatusMessages REG_DWORD 1

(I also tried a value of 0).

I confirmed that the registry key is on the target. However the Welcome
screen is still there.

Any ideas on why it's still there?

Thanks,

Art R.

Hi Art

See if this is what you are after.

In Target Designer click on settings in your solution (just above extra
files, etc)

Then select 'other settings' and 'Do not display GUI boot screens'

This adds the /NOGUIBOOT switch to the BOOT.INI file and disables much of
the GUI during boot.

Hope this helps

Hi Art,
Have you tried
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\system
Data Name: HideStartupScripts Data Type: REG_DWORD Data Value: 1

Best regards,

Hi Art,

Leave the DisableStatusMessages as 1.

Then go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogon

Set LogonType to 0.
Set AutoAdminLogon to 1

If you don't have AutoAdminLogon (REG_SZ), I suggest you add the Automatic
Logon component in TD.

That should solve your problem =)
