Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System]
"DisableAcrylicBackgroundOnLogon"=dword:00000001
Rename to "whatever-you-want.reg" and click on the registry file or set manually with registry editor.
Reboot. That's all folks.
If for some reason you want to enable again, same process for a reg file or manually delete line with registry editor:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System]
"DisableAcrylicBackgroundOnLogon"=-
Regards,
Hi Johnny,
With Windows Pro the registry is set when you enable the policy, they just go together, if you disable the policy or set it to not configured the entry in the registry disappears. With windows Home you don't have the policy editor so you just do it directly in the registry and the result is the same.
