Windows 10 Login Background Changer Tool

UPDATE: This application doesn’t seem to work with 1607 and later versions of Windows 10.

In one of our previous guides titled how to change the Windows 10 login screen background image, we talked about a workaround to change the default background picture of the login or logon screen of Windows 10.

As mentioned in the workaround article, the default login screen picture is stored in the Windows.logon.ui.pri file located under the SystemResources directory (Windows\SystemResources) of Windows 10 installed drive.

To manually change the background picture of the login screen in Windows 10, we need to create a new .pri file by including the custom background image and then replace the original .pri file with the custom one by taking ownership of the file and folder where original Windows.logon.ui.pri file is located.

The guide to change Windows 10 login screen works great but is not for everyone. In fact, most users find it difficult to take ownership of files and prefer using a program for the job.

    Last year I applied an wallpaper (by my choice), signed out, and then my PC hanged on black screen with a flickering loading cursor. I tried restarting PC, didn’t work. I tried to reset the PC, issue still persisted. Finally, I installed new Windows 10 version 1903. Not recommended for download!

    Robert, you meant to say that you are not getting the login screen after installing the Login Backgroun Changer Tool? If yes, we suggest you boot into the Safe mode and then uninstall the program. These guides might help you troubleshoot the issue:

    The “Next Option” is available in menu-But what happened to “Previous Option”, in the menu, for desktop wallpaper?
    I really would like to see this option included in upcoming updates. Or even a hot fix, or the ability to add the option myself (with the proper direction of course). Would even be satisfied with a third party fix-if one is available.
    Thanks for your time and consideration.
    Ray
