How to Change Windows 10 Boot Animation
Windows 10 boot animation is the graphical sequence that appears when you start your computer. It usually consists of a Windows logo and a spinning circle of dots. However, some users may want to customize the boot animation to make it more interesting or personal. In this article, we will show you how to change Windows 10 boot animation using different methods.
Method 1: Enable Windows 10X Boot Animation
Windows 10X is a new version of Windows that is designed for dual-screen and foldable devices. It has a different boot animation than Windows 10, which features a WinUI 3 spinning circle instead of Win8-like style circles. You can enable this boot animation in Windows 10 by modifying the registry. However, this method requires that you have Windows 10 build 19587 or higher. Here are the steps to enable Windows 10X boot animation in Windows 10:

Open the Registry Editor app by pressing Windows + R keys, typing regedit, and clicking OK.
Navigate to the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control.
Right-click on Control and select New > Key. Name the new key as BootControl.
In the right side of BootControl, right-click on an empty space and select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value. Name the new value as BootProgressAnimation.
Double-click on BootProgressAnimation and set its value data to 1. Click OK.
Close the Registry Editor and restart your computer to see the new boot animation.
To disable the Windows 10X boot animation, you can either delete the BootProgressAnimation value or set its value data to 0.
Method 2: Change Windows Boot Logo with HackBGRT
HackBGRT is a free tool that allows you to change the Windows boot logo on UEFI systems. You can use any 24-bit BMP image as your custom boot logo, as long as it has the same resolution as your screen. However, this method requires that you disable Secure Boot in your BIOS settings, which may affect your system security. Also, you should make a backup or a restore point before using this tool, as it may make your Windows installation unbootable. Here are the steps to change Windows boot logo with HackBGRT:
Download HackBGRT from its [GitHub page] and extract the ZIP file to a folder.
Create or find a BMP image that you want to use as your boot logo. Make sure it has the same resolution as your screen and save it in the same folder as HackBGRT.
Run HackBGRT.exe as administrator and click on Select Image. Browse to your BMP image and click on Open.
You can adjust the position and size of your image using the sliders. You can also change the background color and text color if you want.
When you are satisfied with your settings, click on Patch. A confirmation message will appear. Click on Yes.
Close HackBGRT and restart your computer to see your custom boot logo.
To restore the original boot logo, you can run HackBGRT.exe again and click on Restore.
Conclusion
In this article, we have shown you how to change Windows 10 boot animation using two methods: enabling Windows 10X boot animation or changing Windows boot logo with HackBGRT. Both methods require modifying some system files or settings, so you should be careful and make a backup before trying them.
