No screensaver Windows 7 welcome/login screen.

Hello everyone, I just installed Windows 7 Professional 64 bit and I noticed that once the computer is turned on and sitting in front of the Welcome screen (there are 3 users on this computer), it will continue to show that the screen and never go to a screen saver. I used to have Vista and I remember he possibly commit the screensaver, even in the Welcome screen, but so far on 7 I have not seen that happen. Anyone know if this is normal or if there are some parameters that can be modified in order to implement? I found an old article on these settings in XP and Vista, however, the registry string it references does not appear in the registry 7. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello

You can activate the screen saver of logon by adding a few registry values.

One of the problems that you have is that Direct3D support is not enabled on the login screen, which means that you cannot use any of the stock of Windows 7 screensavers.  With this in mind you can download any of your choice on the web or enter logon. File SCR to a Vista machine.  The file will be in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 - copy it to the same location on your Windows 7 machine.

Now, open the registry editor and navigate to HKEY_USERS. Default-Control Panel-Desktop

Under this key, create the following REG_SZ values...

SCRNSAVE. EXE = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\LOGON. SCR (or whatever your file is called).
ScreenSaveActive = 1
ScreenSaveIsSecure = 0
ScreenSaveTimeOut = 60 (or whatever the desired delay in seconds)

What is - this - you will have your screen saver to the logon screen.  If you need help made me know in the comments section below.

I know that I'm not editing the registry here talking and I assume that you know how to do it.  If you haven't, let me know and I can send you a. REG file for example which will do that for you.

I hope this helps!

  • How to increase the font size on the screen of welcome/Login?

    I use Windows 7 Premium on Acer Revo 3610 HTPC connected to a screen LCD of Toshiba 32AV502RZ (720 p). I change the font settings to use the large font size (150%), which seemed to work fine for the account administrator by default, but after that I have created the accounts of additional users for the members of my family, the elements of welcome/login screen becomes really small. I can hardly read the names of the users at a distance of 3-4 meters. Is it possible to increase the size of fonts (and possibly icons) on the welcome/Login screen? Also, is there a way to make fonts same Benoit that the option of customizing Office 150%? (Note: I don't want to reduce the resolution of the screen.) Thank you.

    To set the font size on the screen of welcome from 100% / 125%, 150%, use the respective reg file:

  • How can I remove the email notification in the Windows 7 login screen?

    opening start screen

    When I turn on my computer at the beginning to start click on user name in my name says 464 emails unread how rectify this.

    Regards Mike Robson

    Glib answer: read your emails.

    Notification of "unread mail" on the Windows Home screen reflects information from several e-mail applications that can be installed on your computer, including at least, Outlook Express and Mozilla Thunderbird's.  Other messaging applications can also contribute to the total.

    If you click on the link, you are supposed to see what e-mail client has how many messages, but I have never actually confirmed this feature.

    See Presentation of the mail notification display on the Windows XP Welcome screen.

    You can completely disable this notification.  The link above the article explains how to change the registry, but the easiest is to download TweakUI for Windows XP.  For some reason, the Microsoft download link for this seems to be non-functional now, but you can get it here--> http://download.cnet.com/Tweak-UI/3000-2072_4-10002117.html

    After you install TweakUI, click on "Login" in the left pane, then "unread mail".

  • Receives does not the windows login screen

    Hello

    We use Windows Xp professional. After windows logo, I don't get windows journal in the screen. It stops with an Aero mouse point.

    I tried to repair the operating system using the Windows XP CD.

    Please provide any possible sollutions

    I had exactly the same problem - no changes known to the PC but the PC boots only at the stage just BEFORE the login or welcome screen.  Safe mode also did not work.

    I found a solution that worked for me from another forum (I remember credit what he can't do, but where it was!).  Sound essentially do a system restore manually.  The actual instructions seemed not completely correct for my machine, so you maybe a little wing.

    Start the PC with the CD of Win XP and enter the Recovery Console.

    then:

    CD.
    CD system ~ 1\_resto ~ 1

    This directory does not exist on my machine - I had to:
    CD "system volume information".
    CD "_restore {blah blah blah} - cant quite remember what he said, but it was pretty obvious.

    Continue down the tree until you find a whole bunch of files with a prefix of RP (RP100, RP101, etc.)
    CD in the second of the last folder RP

    then
    CD snapshot

    type:
    copy _registry_machine_system c:\windows\system32\config\system
    Copy _registry_machine_software c:\windows\system32\config\software

    exit the recovery console and restart.

    Then my machine booted up very happy...

    I hope this helps.

  • Keyboard not working on Lenovo Windows laptop and stuck on the login screen

    I have a Lenovo WIndows 8 20157 laptop, the keyboard no longer works someday so I restored it.  At that time, I could use an external keyboard.  When the system rebooted, it got to the login screen and will not work.  The screen keyboard and the external keyboard does not work.  The only thing that happens when I use a keyboard (external to the screen, laptop), is that if I hit the button S power options developed.  I can not connect and I can't run it in safe mode.  Already, I have removed the battery and held down the power button, which has not changed anything.

    I took it for someone who told me to restore to factory settings and there are drop down menu in the corner of the login screen, but sometimes the mouse works and sometimes it isn't.  For example at the moment I can't open easy access menu to open the keyboard screen, but sometimes I can't.  Any ideas?

    Hi Jennifer,.

    Welcome to the Microsoft community.

    According to the request, you have problems with the keyboard on your Lenovo laptop.

    As you have made a number of steps to address this issue including restoration to factory settings, I feel that this could be a hardware problem, so at this point in time that it would be better you contact Lenovo for additional troubleshooting support.

  • New Mail notification to appear in my Windows account login screen, peux I turn this off?

    I started using Thunderbird for my email because I am so sick of "Comcast/Xfinity" unwanted advertising and dumping else on my computer when I just want to make my Comcast email. I've customized email Thunderbird (options, etc.) to display the way I want. However, I use a shared computer I put in place will have to connect to multiple user accounts or the Admin and now T-Bird puts in place a notification on my user account (on the Windows login screen) of new e-mail arriving and how many new emails I have. I don't necessarily want other users to see if I have new messages and the number of new messages I. Is there a way to disable this "feature"? I don't see any option in the tools of T-Bird.

  • Qosmio X 500-Windows 7 stuck at login screen

    Machine: Qosmio x 500 - 10U
    OS: Windows 7 Home Premium OA

    Start-up and installation worked the first round. I then did the following partitions:

    C: Windows (original system partition)
    D: data (here I put all my work files)
    F: executable (here are all binary executables that I use)

    Then I have some files from C:\Programs F:\Programs.

    Everything worked well.

    Then I decided to change F: E: (for executable files) for this that I had to move (by default the system original) E:DVD to a new letter and skillful. I chose O:DVD (for "optical") and themselves E: F:.

    Then I rebooted.

    Now, the system boots all the way to the login screen, except that there is no choice of the user. Windows itself has obviously begun because of other functions such as the "Shutdown" and "Restart" buttons doesn't work. But no user or boxes icons to select a user and a password.

    When I boot from a disk UBUNTO DVD player also works and I can always get hold of all my data on different partitions. I can't get windows itslef to connect.

    I have a file recovery hard disk but no optical drive because he kept saying that he didn't create the recovery disk.

    I think I need to fix a few indications of disk in the windows registry file. Unfortunately the utility 'regedit' does not work with UBUNTO.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    That means login screen, you can choose different users, is it good?
    If so, it would be interesting to know that users connect after Windows starts. Check it!

    To be honest, it's a bit complicated and I don t understand why you did this procedure. In my opinion, that messed with the registry of Windows or other important files and the only option would be to reinstall Windows, I think.

    > I have a file recovery hard disk but no optical drive because he kept saying that he didn't create the recovery disk.
    You get this error message, exactly? Maybe the creator of recovery disc can t find files more why you didn't create the disk before?

    Now, you could try the recovery of HARD drive option. This is your last chance to get back to factory settings and maybe it works

  • Tecra M2 LCD brightness to Windows login screen

    Hello

    the brightness of the LCD screen of my Tecra M2 is too dark at the Windows login screen (only here). I'd say it's around one or two steps above the minimum brightness, which is really too dark.

    After login, the brightness can be adjusted with the Fn key combinations or the Toshiba software. I know it wasn't dark before, but somehow I have seem to have changed without knowing.

    I tried to change the parameter logged on as administrator, but nothing helped. After the reboot, the screen is dark again. The Fn keys do not work on the login screen.

    So, does anyone know how the setting until a user's?

    Thank you
    Ingmar

    Hello Ingmar

    I don't really know why is it so important to you, but something like that is nothing unusual. At the beginning the BIOS is responsible for all the activities and no OS. I imagine that in the BIOS settings that the brightness of the LCD screen is not set to the maximum level (not necessary). When the BONE starts OS take control over the material and that you have more high level of brightness (if you defined in the intelligence tool).
    All that s!

  • I get the windows login screen and I do not know the password for administrators

    I accidentally deleted my account and when the computer starts and I get the windows login screen and I do not know the administrators password. Also how can I reinstall windows when I got a disc when I brought my laptop. Thank you, Lorraine

    Thanks for getting back to me. I sold my old laptop to my son-in-law, and he asked me to remove my name from the computer off so that my name wasn't on the screen all the time. so I deleted the profile of cook of lorraine and made one for him, but I didn't give it a password. then I realized what I had to do (I got Lorraine where time is on the bottom of the screen), but was unable to highlight to remove it without a mouse. so I plugged a mouse, but the computer does not read, then I restarted the computer. When I restarted, all I could get was the windows login screen.

    then I typed in the name son-nlaws and they said that he was kidnapped, tyoed in mine and got the same and then typed in Administrator, but did not know the password. I have since reinstalled windows. XP Professional would not install saying a file was missing, so I installed xp family and is working again. He just has to click on what edition it wants to run. Professional XP of course happen just with the display of connection... but it can use again.
    Thank you once again, Lorraine
