I am trying to customize the "Welcome" message displayed after login in windows 7, I already have a message that displays on startup, which I made by opening regedit.exe and changing files in this dir HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System, but I am not sure where to find the file in which the value of "Welcome" is stored.

Thank you for your time and answers!
 


Solution
The strings are in winlogon.exe.mui. You will need to take ownership of the file, copy it to your desktop. Open it with resource hacker and edit the strings you want under the string section. Save it and copy it back to C:\Windows\System32\en-US. Open an elevated command prompt and type mcbuilder reboot and your done.
It's literally called Resource Hacker
Well, I watched your video all the way through, followed every step, but still did not get the desired result, it still just said Welcome... :/

-UPDATE- After a couple hours it started working. Thanks Neemobeer!
