Logon Studio isn't affecting login screens.

Saturday, April 14, 2007 by forcrimanysakes | Discussion: LogonStudio

For some reason, changing the Login screen in Login Studio doesn't change the actual Login screen.

I can choose any of the ones I've downloaded/default ones.  The preview in the little window appears correctly.  When I click APPLY the default windoze behavior happens (ie: the screen clears to the background image, and I get the windows box saying it's been locked; not the Login Studio themed one).

It just doesn't seem to be changing anything.  And yes, even after a reboot.

This is a fairly new install of windows (as in, the last 72 hours) so I can't imagine I've downloaded something to crush it.

I run Spybot; Zone Alarm, Avast; I doubt any of those muck with anything, but you never know.

Anyone have any hints?

Thanks!

thanks! you are absolutely correct. apparently the netgear wireless usb "modem" that i recently bought / installed disables both fast user switching AND welcome screen.


which, i feel is quite lame. but that's a topic for another time.


thanks again!
