Logon Changer for Windows 7

Last week, Rafael Rivera Jr. made an important Windows 7 discovery regarding changeable login screen backgrounds in the operating system. We reported on how to change your login background in our post. While the login changing ability was found in the 7057 build on Windows 7, anyone running the operating system (build 7000+) should be able to change their login screen.

Now, Tweaks.com is making the task much simpler with an easy-to-use Logon Changer. The application is a lightweight utility that is extremely easy to use and lets the user avoid creating annoying registry values, renaming images, and dragging folders.

To use the program, simply run the application “TweaksLogon.exe” and begin. Click “Change Logon Screen” to select an image from your hard drive.

The Logon Changer will then provide an example of what your login screen may look like. You can press the “Test” button to move to your Switch User view. Don’t worry, this does not log you out of Windows.

Once you are satisfied with your login screen, simply exit the program and enjoy. Reverting back to the default login screen is as easy as clicking the “Revert to Default Logon Screen” button in Logon Changer.

The program can be downloaded here:
