liamb2001 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 (edited) Im trying to make my windows 10 boot from my SSD load straight into windows and then into black box Ive managed to disable any part of the initial windows boot screen which now boots from bios to a black screen which im happy with IVe disabled the windows 10 login screen telling it to bypass which all works great except during loading into windows it still shows my Username "ARCADE" and the profile pic. Does anyone know how i disable this at all ?? i have been stuck trying (broken and recovered my OS) for around 3 hours now Edited July 14, 2017 by liamb2001 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 (edited) You could use BBlean and use Bsetshell to launch right into BB without Windows Explorer ever opening Edited July 14, 2017 by DOS76 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liamb2001 Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 ive given it a go and its a good alternative but would rather keep explorer running - i just want to to remove the logging in screen ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liamb2001 Posted July 15, 2017 Author Share Posted July 15, 2017 tried that one thanks. All these guides that se this netplwiz method do the same thing, they allow you to not have to enter your password but rather frustratingly you still see the member login screen appear for a second before which completely ruins that fluid arcade boot im trying to get with windows hidden as much as possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 (edited) Well according to this you can change the login screen background so could you just make the background image something that would blend in with your arcade buildhttps://www.cnet.com/how-to/change-the-windows-10-login-screen-background-to-a-solid-color/ I mean its not what your looking for per say but if you found an image you liked it might work. You could even find multiple images and use the slide show option if you wanted. Edited July 15, 2017 by DOS76 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats as far as i got, i have my custom bios boot screen then i have an arcade style login background with an arcade stlye login icon that you only see for a very short time that then boots my custom batch file ive created that launches my video intro screen wich hides my other programs that bootup in the background while its playing... its all pretty seamless and to the standard person it looks like im not running windows. Here is a a video of it in action ( after the videos intro) bear in mind this video is a pretty old setup and i have fine tuned it more since And here is one i did for a fight cab for a mate, altho i think i used windows 7, could have still done with a bit more work but he was happy, apologies for the average recording Edited July 15, 2017 by Mute64 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did actually follow this yt video with bcedit its how i got my pc to boot up with a black screen but you still see a brief login as it logs in. I ended up putting a pacman character as my aavatar pic and renaming my profile "ARCADE BOOTING..." does the job. i dont think its possible to compltley remove it unfortunatley.

Yea i do believe it is much harder to hide stuff like that on Win 10... you might have more luck on win 7 tho? Edit: Haven't been home yet to share the video/batch file.. ill do it ronight probably tho. Edited July 21, 2017 by Mute64 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry the info I linked wasn't helpful. Are you running Windows 10 Enterprise? I think that version is needed for this to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
