Teach you to do Windows XP login interface

First, find the logonui.exe file in your computer, usually in the c:\\Windows\\system32 directory, copy two copies, one for backup and one for editing.

Second, open the file logonui.exe ResHacker. Now we can start making our own XP login interface. In ResHacker we can see four items: UIFILE, Bitmap, String Table, Version Info. We are going to modify these items.

The first item: UIFILE

a, change the background color. Open: \\UIFILE\\1000\\1033\\, we can see that XP's original logonui.exe is defined as follows: (may not see it all at once, scroll down the scroll bar on the right)

The color changes to your favorite color. For example, change argb(0,0,0,0) to argb(99,118,149) and so on. If you are not familiar with RGB values, (who can remember very clearly), please download a software called erotic
, which is very simple to use.

b, change the character shape of the password. Press CTRL+F, or select Find Text in the View menu and find: passWordcharacter. You can see that it is defined as a 4-digit number, which is actually an ASCII 16-bit value. As follows:

passWordcharacter: 9679;
fontface: "arial";

bearing in mind the following fontface line, which defines the fonts used, XP default font is arial and 9679, also This is the small black dot you see when you enter your password. The ASCII-hex values ​​of different fonts represent different characters. You can change this to:

passWordcharacter: 207;
fontface: "webdings";

What is the symbol? You have already tried it. A simple way to find the ASCII-hex value of a character is to use Microsoft Word, or any word processing software such as WPS Office, select "Insert" --> "Symbol", then select one in the pop-up dialog box. Kind of font, choose a symbol you like, pay attention to the value in the character code below, press this change. Also pay attention to the use of unicode fonts, so as not to have fonts defined on others' machines.

c. Change the location of the account (userpane) when logging in. In the penultimate paragraph, the location of the account at login is defined. Press CTRL+F to find the
line.

Note the following definition, XP default is:

You can choose to change to:

Up. Note that you need to know where you plan to place the account, in the x, y position of the coordinate axis, the unit is pixel (pixel), I suggest you try it later

The second item: Bitmap is the image we want to modify. Open the Bitmap directory tree, open the ResHacker Operation menu, and find the Replace Bitmap to replace the bitmap resource in the original logonui.exe. The following is the definition and original size of the bitmap:

Generally, we only need to modify some of the 100 and 112 items. If the image you used to replace 100 is not the XP standard 219*217, you can also modify the logonui.exe settings to suit your standard. Other image size requirements are not very strict, and you do not need to change other options.

1, open \\UIFILE\\1000\\1033\\ directory tree
2, press CTRL+F, or select "find text" in the "View" menu
3, find this line
4, change the 219rp, 207rp to the value of your picture. Note that the rp after the number cannot be dropped. 219 is the width and 207 is the height.

Also note that the picture is not too much, more than you login account name, or will be very slow, does not look good. If you think that is the best for you, you can find \\UIFILE\\1000\\1033\\ in: animation: alpha |  s |  Mediumslow: The place of the field, delete the following paragraph:

This will allow XP to no longer fade the account (ie alpha blend), thus speeding up.

The third and fourth items are not that important. Mainly some strings, responsible for some annotation help tips and so on. Of course, I still recommend you to add your name in the Version Info item, for example:

Open String Table\\1\\1033, press CTRL+F, find: Turn off Computer, change to more personalized "Bye-Bye my love", and so on. After all the modifications are made, it is best to save them to another directory.

Install using XP LogonUI. This is the most convenient way and it is very safe. Otherwise you can follow the safest approach.

1. Restart your computer.
2, press and hold the F8 key during startup, select Safe mode with command Prompt
3, log in as the administrator account
4, then backup, copy, overwrite c:\\Windows\\system32\\ in the DOS prompt Logonui.exe
5, restart.
