How to hide the Pre-OS bootup screen
Reboot Restore adds a Pre-OS bootup screen which has a few advanced settings. Some users may want to hide this screen to put Reboot Restore in a stealth mode.
Note: once hidden, the Pre-OS bootup screen can still be accessed by hitting the HOME key on your keyboard just after your PC's BIOS initiates.
From the Client
This applies to the Standard and Enterprise editions of Reboot Restore.
- Shift+double click on the Windows tray icon
- Enter your username/password
- Click on gear icon in top right > Program Settings > Hide Pre-OS logo in startup screen.
Once disabled, your PCs will bootup normally to the Windows logo.
From the EndPoint Manager
Applies to the Enterprise edition of Reboot Restore.
- Open the Endpoint Manager and right click on an individual PC or a group
- Click on Modify Client Settings
- Show/hide the pre-OS logo in bootup screen
Note: this setting is not pulling the current setting from your clients, it is meant to push the change you want to apply to your clients.
