WINDOWS


Log on Screen Capture


Snapped in the act


When describing how to Sign on to Windows, it's nice to be able to show what the screen looks like.

Print Screen won't work, because the cache has not been set up until after the process.

Here's how it's done:

  1. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to open the Windows Task Manager

  2. Click on the Processes tab and highlight Explorer.exe

  3. Click "End Task" in the lower right corner

  4. A warning will pop up, click Yes


If everything worked, your taskbar and desktop should have disappeared.

Don't worry, it's temporary.


  1. In the Task Manager, go to the File menu and select New Task.

  2. In the input box, type "logonui" and click OK.
    The logon screen should now appear behind the Task Manager.

  3. At this point, go ahead and take your screenshots. You can open Paint by typing "mspaint" into the New Task box.

  4. Once you have finished taking and saving the screenshots, select "logonui.exe" in the process list in the Task Manager and click End Task.

  5. This will close the logon screen.

  6. Finally, go to File and New Task. Type "Explorer" into the text box and click OK.


Your taskbar and desktop should now re-appear.

This works with Windows XP and Windows server 2003. Earlier versions did not have Logonui.exe.


I'm still looking for a way to get the classic Log on screen.
