10.2.1. How to Change the Appearance of Windows
Start the AVG Styler module by going to the Customize Windows category in the Start Center and clicking
on the Personalize the appearance of Windows entry in the Change Windows appearance area.
Alternatively, you can start the module by going to Overview of all functions in the Start Center and
selecting the Change Windows appearance entry under Windows.
The AVG Styler start page opens from which all adjustment options of the module can be quickly reached.
Click on the area in which you wish to make changes. Give your creativity free reign and design your Windows
system completely to your own tastes.
10.2.2. Boot Screen
When you boot up Windows, a black screen is displayed as standard. AVG Styler lets you switch this boot
screen for a different one with just a few clicks. Or let your imagination run wild and create your own boot
screen with your favorite vacation photo, for example.
Please note that this function is not available in Windows 7, as Windows 7 does not use a boot screen.
This is how it works:
Start the AVG Styler module by going to the Customize Windows category in the Start Center and clicking
on the Personalize the appearance of Windows entry in the Change Windows appearance area.
On the navigation bar, click in the left-hand window area on Boot screen.
AVG Styler lists all available boot screens. The first time you use the module, the only screen in the list will
be the default Windows boot screen.
You can add new boot screens to the list before finally accepting them. To do so you have the following
options:
Downloading previously created boot screens
In the top left, click Add under Boot screens.
Select the entry Download Boot Screens from AVG Online.
This takes you to a website where you can find a wide selection of different boot screens with which you
can improve the appearance of the startup process exactly how you want.
Click on a boot screen.
This is automatically opened with AVG Styler and added to the list.
Adding Boot Screens from a File
In the top left, click Add under Boot screens.
