Size of the fonts and picture in login screen.

robust

New member
Hi.

I am installing a new desktop for my mother with win7. She is not seeing so well so I need to increase the font size and/or the picture size in the logon screen for her.

I know there is a way, changing some values in a .dll, but a need some step by step instructions.

Thanks.

No need to modify any dll. That screen adopts the values set for the hidden admin account.

Allow me to re-address.

Login as an admin.

Set resolution to a lower value.

Create new account.

Log out as admin, log in new account.

If necessary, modify new account's resolution.

Log on screen will retain the lower res.

Without taking a photo of my log in screen, I cannot demonstrate that I have a working example of what you are asking for.
