LegalNotice1.0.0.0

There are various ways through which to change status and availability for different Windows features. Most of these changes reflect in registry entries, which is just right if you don’t want you actions to be easily traceable. For instance, LegalNotice makes it possible to have a prompt show up right before the login process.

Advantages of a portable app

On the one hand, the application is good to go from the moment download is done, which means it can be stored on a thumb drive to carry it around in case you want to use it on other computers besides your own. However, the target PC needs to be fitted with .NET Framework for everything to properly function.The overall process takes little time from start to end. You might want to start the application with administrator privileges so it can access all required areas and save changes accordingly. In case you know what the target values stand for, there’s no need to bring up the Registry Editor. Even with these values changed, there are no restrictions applied, but merely an info screen brought up.

Changes applied on the spot

You’re able to modify two values in system registries. If enabled and configured, a prompt window shows up before login and displays the text you add. The application takes care of both of them, one representing the dialog box title, while the other content, which are also the only two editable fields you work with. The caption changes the legalnoticecaption key, while content changes in legalnoticetext.However, the prompt doesn’t show up unless the DisableCAD entry value is changed to 0, and you find this entry in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon. Sadly, the application doesn’t come with an option to do this, so you might need to manually perform this operation in case the prompt fails to show up.

To end with

In conclusion, LegalNotice might not have a high practicality value except for displaying a custom text message before the user has a chance to reach the desktop. You might also need to make some manual tweaks to registry entries, but even so, no harm is done to your computer, even if everything is handled in terms of registries.
