Current state of Logon Screen Rotator
Here is something I frequently get asked about: Logon Screen Rotator. The short of it is I have the next version pretty much ready to go bar one problem, which I’ll mention in a moment. There are a few updates in this version I would of liked to of got out to everyone sooner but because I decided to also include support for Windows Vista and XP in this version it has delayed the release. The updates mainly include fixing a bunch of scenarios in which the logon screen would not change at all for the user. I have also added a new feature which was released in the public beta, the ability to retrieve images from the internet and apply them as the logon screen image.
The issue I am having is that the system file that needs to be edited (imageres.dll) is constantly used by Windows Explorer and numerous other applications which means to override the file I need to stop these processes from using the file. I am looking for a clean and safe way to do this and then I will roll out this release.
