HOW TO CHANGE WINDOWS 10 LOGIN SCREEN BACKGROUND COLOR TO AN IMAGE

In this article I’m going to share step by step guide on how to change Windows 10 login or logon screen background color to an image. So, if you want to replace login screen background color with your favorite image, then don’t miss to check this guide.

Microsoft doesn’t yet provide an official registry hack or group policy setting for changing the login screen background on Windows 10. However, enterprising Windows tweakers have discovered that the image is part of the Windows.UI.Logon.pri file. Change the image stored inside the PRI file and Windows will use a different background image of your choice.

Warning: This approach uses third-party tools to modify a Windows system file. Continue at your own risk.

You’ll need some sort of third-party script or utility to do this. The best tool we found for this was the Windows 10 Login Image Changer, created by Alphawaves over at the My Digital Life Forums, which worked fine on our test system. You’ll need to register and log into the forum to view the download, but here’s a direct download link to the Windows 10 Login Image Changer. (PFCKrutonium’s Windows 10 Login Background Changer should theoretically work as well, but we ran into permission issues. It may be fixed in the future.)

Launch it and select a background image — for example, the wallpapers built into Windows 10 are stored at C:\Windows\Web\ . You’re free to download other wallpaper images from the web, use your own, or even create a flat-color wallpaper image. This would allow you to set a different flat-color background for your login screen than the one Windows 10 uses on the desktop.
