How to enable a new hidden log in screen in Windows 10 9926

In Microsoft new build of Windows 10 there are few features which are not enabled by default but with a simple registry trick, you can able to use those hidden features. We just heard from the Neowin that they found some of the hidden items like, the clock and calendar widget, and now the new user login screen too.

If you want to enable this hidden log-in screen feature in your Windows 10, it's quite easy if you know how to play with the registry. With that being said, only proceed if you have experience adding values to the registry because if you do this incorrectly, it can break your install of Windows 10.

Follow the steps below to enable the new login screen in Windows 10 build 9926:

• Open Regedit.exe
• Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\TestHooks
• Double click on 'Threshold' and change the value to 1
• Close Regedit.exe

After making the edit, you can go back to the login screen and see the updated visuals that include a new location for the lock-screen icons and a round user icon too. There does not appear to be any significant new functionality yet, but it's clear the UI elements have been updated when compared to Windows 8.
