Findings about Windows 10 Releases

on that matter, I miss the Windows 8 theme too, it was much better, someone better port them all if Microsoft doesn't.

 

You can now see activation keys at the Insider Hub - 'Validate activation status on your Windows 10 Technical Preview device' quest.

Small yet annoying "Finding" with 10166 and 10162.

HashCheck 2.1.11.1/x64 seems to get removed from context menu occasionally. I install it to use the "create checksum file" with right click, but I have to reinstall it now and then to keep it there. Anyone else notice this? Any fix to keep it put?

 

Use HashTab, better product.

We are talking about the logon screen background not the lock screen background. I searched for it in many places like folders, dll files, and no luck.

 

It is a secret where Microsoft hid that background and files controlling it.

The location of background is in the registry. Not sure where though

 

by the looks of the image, its pretty compressed. I would guess its either pretty small or inside a DLL. DLL would be my first guess.

 

I did a little bit of search in the registry, but couldn't find anything. Perhaps those guys from Winaero will find it one of these days.

 

Let me guess
I think it might be
Shell32.dll

 

Or we will
Or MSFT will let us change it but I doubt that

 

Ooooh Microsoft why make things complicated for us.
