Simple Trick with Windows 8: Start-Up message

Hello guys! I am starting this blog with a simple trick for Windows 8. You will be learning to show a start-up message before User Sign In/ Login screen appears in windows 8. The screen when start-up message will be displayed will look somehow like this:

Sample (Click image to view larger)

Steps to do this:

1.     Open Regedit.exe from Run

a.      Press Win + R to open Run

b.     Type Regedit and press Ok or Enter

2.     In left side you will find a Tree structure of registry

3.     Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

4.     Expand SOFTWARE

5.     Expand Microsoft

6.     Expand Windows

7.     Expand CurrentVersion

8.     Expand Policies

9.     Click in System

Now, you will get a list of registry files in left panel

10.  Double Click legalnoticecaption (or Right Click it and Click modify)

a.      Change the ‘value data’ to your desired title of the message. This will appear bold and larger in the screen.

b.     After, title is given, Click Ok

11.  Double Click legalnoticetext (or Right Click it and Click modify)

a.      Change the ‘value data’ to your desired start-up message. This will appear little smaller in size in the screen and is below the title.

b.     Click Ok

Enjoy the start-up message! You will get this message every time you start Windows 8 before your login/ Sign In screen appears. You can leave blank in title or message also and you can type message in title also, so that you get all message in same font size.

You can easily revert this. Just you need to empty your title and message and you will get your old Windows 8 without any start-up message.

Thank you!
