Windows 10: Enable "Show Animations in Windows" settings in Windows 10 using Group policy or registry...

How to enable "Show Animations in Windows" settings in Windows 10 using Group policy or registry setting?

:)

 

group policy editor VS registry settings

ALL settings are applied through the registry. The Group Policy Editor is just a GUI with a set of templates containing the registry settings required.

Microsoft publish this spreadsheet listing all the policies and the registry settings they use.

Group Policy Settings Reference Spreadsheet Windows 10 version 2004

To add to OilerNut's post, in Group Policy Settings Reference Spreadsheet Windows 10 version 2004 - TenForums the GPA setting Always use custom logon background is listed [row 2520] as being in the Registry at
HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System!UseOEMBackground
so perhaps
- that linked procedure still works, or
- there is a way of setting this item up manually.

I do not use Pro so this is no more than a suggestion.

Creative X-Fi Soundcards and Windows 10 Fall Creators Update 1709 = Complete Disaster / Not Working

Any Windows update breaks my Creative sound drivers. Best way for me is to disable it via group policy:

• Go to Run –> gpedit.msc
• In the Group Policy Editor, go to Computer Configuration –> Administrative Templates –> System –> Device Installation –> Device Installation Restrictions
• In the right hand pane, select “Prevent installation of devices not described by other policy settings” and set it to Enabled.

Once that's done, uninstall the driver Windows put in there and install the correct one.
