In this post from yesterday, I showed you how to change the Welcome Screen in Windows 7. Today I’ll show you how to change the shadowing on the text and buttons on the Welcome Screen to make it look better with your chosen background.
1) Click on Start, and in the search box type REGEDIT and then press ENTER.
2) Navigate to the following key:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI
3) Look for a DWORD value called ButtonSet. If you don’t see it, right-click in the right pane and choose New > DWORD value and give it that name.
4) Change the value of the key to your preference:
0 – Lighter text shadows, darker buttons (default setting)
1 – Darker text shadows, lighter buttons
2 – No text shadows, opaque buttons
No reboot is necessary after making these changes. Just press CTRL+ATL+DEL to see the Welcome Screen after changing the Registry.
