i would like to know how to bypass we welcome center in vista.

does this involve the file oobe.xml? or something else.

my ultimate goal is to go from the white progress bar

at windows boot to a custom shell (replacing the standard explorer.exe

shell)

thanks

Good news everybody:

I was able to remove the welcome screen with help from Andre Da Costa[ActiveWin]:

1. Start Regedit.

2. Navigate through HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Software, Microsoft, Windows, CurrentVersion, Run.

3. Right click on the WindowsWelcomeCenter key and select Delete.

The next time you restart the Welcome Center will be gone.

This did the trick. however i still have the pesky image as above.

but guess what if you run sysprep /oobe it all comes back with

and ugly vengence
