    Windows Key + L brings up the Lock screen not Login screen. It means the script must have affected the Lock screen. What is the solution to that, guys?

    Okay. I used to think they are different screens though. However, I would love to see your login screen after making the changes.

    Ye, Win+L beings you to the same screen as logging out. I can't really think of a way to take screenshots... Anyone have any idea's?

    Yes, I do! To capture the login screen is as follows:

    1) Press Windows Key + L to go to Lock screen.

    2) Hit ENTER key and immediately press your Printscreen keys combination. In my keyboard they are fn + prtSc keys. You have to be very fast to get it.

    3) Open Paint, click on Select. Right-click on the body of Paint and select Paste.

    I think it will be better posted here because it is related to the title of the thread, sir.

    you could do the sethc.exe trick where you replace it with cmd.exe and then open command prompt from the lock screen then open the snipping tool but that is a lot of effort for a screenshot

    Okay. You can create the thread - if you object to my previous post.

    Yikes... Never doing that again...

    Krutonium, my gratitude knows no bounds. It's working fine on my ThinkPad with 10240. You're the real hero, not that crude, ugly and boring graphic which I've now been able to banish! :)
