Msbatch.inf Parameters: Remove the Welcome To Windows Box

MORE INFORMATION

Microsoft does not encourage or support changes to .inf files; therefore, Microsoft Technical Support does not support the procedure in this article. Although we have tested the following procedure and it appears to function as described, make a backup copy of your .inf file before you proceed.

In the Msbatch.inf file, modify the [Install] section to include the following line:

   addreg=remove.welcome
				

Also, add the following section and key:

   [remove.welcome]
   HKU,.default\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\ 
   tips,show,1,00
				

Note that the Welcome to Windows dialog box is displayed the first time Windows starts.
