Black screen at the end of the boot process when using custom logon on Windows 10 IoT Enterprise

Hello!


I am using the custom logon feature with Windows 10 IoT Enterprise, but I am getting a 15-second black screen at the end of the boot process. I have tried booting straight into a custom application with the shell launcher and booting to the desktop with similar results (15-sec black screen in both cases). Here is a screenshot of my EmbeddedLogon registry key:

98646-registry-disable-lock-screen.png



When looking at the Windows documentation (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/customize/enterprise/troubleshooting-custom-logon#the-device-displays-a-black-screen-during-setup), the only solution I found was reversing the changes I made in the registry to show the default Windows animations during the boot. Since my main goal is to remove the animations, that solution isn't ideal.



My question:
Is there a way to add some kind of basic loading animation (Ie: spinning dots, loading bar) that isn't the default Windows animation during the 15 seconds where the screen is black? And if the animation isn't possible, would there be a way to show a custom image so that users don't think the device has turned off?


My question is similar to another post I saw on this forum (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/365126/shell-launcher-shows-black-screen-before-applicati.html), but I have tried the two suggested solutions and they didn't work in my case.


Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If you are using System Image Manager to create a configuration set to auto install some features, you can configure the boot splash screen to show the spinning dots using he Embedded-Boot component:

Alternatively, You can use BCDedit to set these values: Unbranded Boot
