Picture of user account plus-res for the login screen?

I have an image ~ 530pixels the place I want to use as an image of user account. I've seen mention that windows dimensionnera the image up to 48 x 48, and that's very good for when the image is displayed small (i.e. the start menu). However, it seems that this image of 48 x 48 is be climbed back to the login screen because it displays the usual up-scaling artifacts. Is it possible to tell Windows, through the registry, use an plus-res image for user account image is displayed on the login screen?

But my source image is certainly high enough res ~ 530 squares. I want windows to * not * is resize up to 128 x 128 for things like the start menu, but then resizing * that * image 128 x 128 to something bigger for the photo log. It would be great if I could just give a picture of 128 x 128 for the profile photo (or the user in mosaic as I see articles call them) and then provide a plus-res image to the login screen. Such an arrangement already exists to provide images for, say, the start menu take into account different parameters.

I think that the icon on the start menu is only 48 x 48. I just changed to a 256 x 256 user image and it is was reduced to 128 x 128 screen connection, much smaller than that of the start menu. I didn't know myself, but I read somewhere that the logon image is reduced even more if you're not using passwords. A 128 x 128 image should not get resized to the logon screen, only reduced to the start menu.

Sorry, no idea how to display a larger image.

  • Which is better to have several user accounts from window for the same person, so having much Firefoxes or have much Firefoxes under a Windows account user?

    Right now I have about 6 window user accounts (just for me on a single computer) because I didn't know I could put more Firefox then one per account. I leave the tabs upward when I close Firefox, because if I just bookmarks I won't finish my work I was doing with these sites. Now that I know how to put multiple Firefoxes under a user account. That would make my computer fast or not, it matter if I put all my Firefoxes on a window user account or have 6 windows user accounts, each with their own Firefox?
    -Thank you

    It is more work to move to a different Windows account and then open another instance of Firefox with a different profile.
    If you only use other windows accounts for the use of Firefox like this and not for any other purpose, then there is nothing against the passage to a single Windows account to make it easier to manage such things as the backup of your personal data or copy data between the other profiles.

    So, it's up to you if you want to switch to a single Windows account.

    OT: Displayed Incorrect user account
    Hi all
    When you switch on my laptop, instead of my list of normal user account, the screen displays the message "incorrect username and password" - OK.
    If I select OK, a profile of incorrect user account appears. Strangely although perhaps, the specified user name, actually part of my email address?
    I tried to enter all kinds of passwords relevant to me, but of course, who are rejected and I went back to 'bad user' - However, if I then click on the option "change user", then get a screen showing both my own correct profile, right next to the bad. By selecting the correct account, then I can access my homescreen, as usual.  I go to the user account page, expecting to remove "rogue" account, as you would with a guest account - for example - but - hey - he's not here, not anywhere for me to remove I can not just simply get rid of it.  OK - this is something I can live with - but it's so boring, Forums, so far, failed to help.

  • There is a second black screen 30 for the login screen to appear

    * Original title: Windows 7 x 64-screen black, slow connection, App - V (boot record)

    Hello

    I have hours of slow connection on a Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium. There's a second of ~ 30 black screen after the computer starts and before the logon screen appears.

    I installed the Windows evaluation and Deployment Kit (ADK) and ran a boot trace by using the Windows performance recorder.

    Using Windows performance monitor, I see that sftlist.exe service takes about 25 seconds to initialize (see screenshot below). This is part of the Microsoft Application Virtualization Client, the version installed is 4.6.3.24650

    Services right expect sftlist finish which could explain the black screen.

    No idea why it takes so long to start and there are patches? Thank you.

    Hi JosephDoherty,

    UAC (User Account Control) notifies you when changes will be made to your computer that require administrator-level permissions.

    You can try to change UAC settings and see if it helps.

    Note: You must restart your computer when you enable or disable UAC. Change levels of notification does not require that you restart your computer.

    Important: Turn on UAC after you complete the steps.

    For more information, you can consult the following articles:

  • Windows 7 Home Premium - all user accounts have disappeared after the update of Windows...

    My Windows 7 Desktop is really watered.  After a Windows automatic update, none of the user accounts appear in the login window.  Only a generic connection where you will need to enter the user and the password are displayed.  And when I enter the user name and password, I get a message that they are not valid.

    Here are a few additional pieces of information:

    1. I tried to restore to the point before the update, but it fails.  I get a message that there are missing files.

    2. my other restore points I had before the update are no longer available.  I don't know what happened to them that they do not appear on the screen of restore points.

    3. I can't log on to the computer at all, none of the accounts work.  I can get to a command prompt by using the repair disk, and I can see all the folders for the users.  So everything is intact.   Something must have happened to some system files and thus connect is not possible.

    4. users appear in the list of profiles in the registry.

    5. no windows service start because none of the users are no longer valid.

    6. I tried sfc/scannow, but I get an error "already waiting.

    7. I tried to add users on the command line using net and they are successful but even when they do not appear on the login screen and I can't manually type in these user accounts - I get the message that they are not valid.

    I tried searching online and I'm still not able to connect to the computer.  It has been 2 days of downtime.  What happened to my old restore points?  And why doesn't my restore points created by the work of windows update?

    I want to just restore from factory default, but I'm afraid I'll lose data in particular, all of the files currently sitting in the user folders.

    Any advice would be much appreciated.

    Here are a few comments:

    1. I tried to restore to the point before the update, but it fails.  I get a message that there are missing files.

    -> Which files are missing? Can you give an example?

    2. my other restore points I had before the update are no longer available.

    -> This happens after the automatic updates.

    5. no windows service start because none of the users are no longer valid.

    -> How to tell you, because you were unable to connect?

    7. I tried to add users on the command line using net and they are successful but even when they do not appear on the login screen and I can't manually type in these user accounts - I get the message that they are not valid.

    ->, I guess you have done this so that in the WRE (repair Windows environment). It is a ghost environment that disappears that you restart the system. Drive X: is a virtual, not a real disc.

    I want to just restore from factory default, but I'm afraid I'll lose data in particular, all of the files currently sitting in the user folders.

    -> Many people are unaware of the need for regular backups (for example, weekly) until they are suffering from a major disaster.

    Suggestions

    Going by your description, I suspect that your existing accounts are irreparable. They need to be rebuilt. User data appear to be safe.

    Option 1. Use the console commands then in WRE to save all the files of the user on an external hard drive. A disk 2.5 "500 GB in a USB enclosure costs less than $60,00. After having tested the files on another machine, perform a destructive factory restore.

    Option 2. Start the computer with a boot of Ubuntu CD, then its GUI allows to save files to the user. It takes time to burn such a CD, but the copy process is easier. When you're done, do a factory restore.

    Option 3. A somewhat complex process allows you to create a new admin account, and then use this account to create new user accounts. You must then manually configure each of them (for example Outlook) and move their records of the old data to the new profile folders.

    There is also a method to restore old files registry of a set of backup files are a few days old. In your case I wouldn't consider as it would create a disjoint system: the registry files refers to a set of files that have been largely modified by the update.

    Post again if you need more detailed instructions for the option that you favor.
