Windows 7: Add watermark?

TheAnonymity · 12 Nov 2009

I've purchased the retail version of Windows 7 Professional. I previously had Windows 7 Ultimate RC, which had the "Evaluation Copy" watermark in the bottom right corner. Is there any way to add a watermark of that sort in the full version without modifying the desktop background?

Why would you want to do that?

I guess thats not possible unless you patch user32.dll.muiand user32.dll.mui.bak system files.

It can be done safely. Open regedit goto HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\PaintDesktopVersion click on it and when the box pops up change the value 0 to a 1.

Log off and back on and Windows version will be there. I dont care why you want to do that.
