JamesRIves Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Hi, In the past, I've used Instant Sheller to "hide" the operating system and to boot directly to HS. I've never tried the utility with Windows 10? Has anyone tried this? Thanks, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesRIves Posted November 9, 2016 Author Share Posted November 9, 2016 That works great and hides 99% of the operating system, but I still get the one blue login screen (with the spinning circle) and account name that briefly says "Welcome". I have auto login set, so the screen is only displayed for a moment, but its still a distraction. Any suggestions regarding how this screen can be eliminated so its a completely "clean" boot (no signs of the operating system)?

Thanks, JimNot easily possible unless you run the enterprise version of windows. Enterprise has a group policy to stop that screen from showing.

JamesRIves Posted November 9, 2016 Author Share Posted November 9, 2016 Thanks. I appreciate the input. I'm a little surprised no one has come up with a new version of Instant Sheller that supports Windows 10. But the approach you cited works fairly well, so perhaps I'll simply live with the login screen. Thanks again! Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubs Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 I succeeded to fully hide everything by customizing a High Contrast theme: all the loading animation etc... can be customized within the theme configuration file.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark13 Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Windows10 enterprise seems to ignore shelling from group policies and system registry here. Just use launcher4kodi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Windows 10 Pro and above include a group policy option to replace explorer.exe. It’s simple. All these sheller apps basically either mess around with Windows system files, or just use the group policy option anyway.
