Issues with Login Window ~ picture size
Running Mint 21.3 Mate/Lenovo T520. I'm experimenting with using the pictures from my pictures folder. I wanted something a little different than the standard Linux fare.
Some of the pictures seem to fit ok but the majority are blown up really big, as to be unusable. I have tried going thru the various settings on the login window with no effect. Is there a way or another place I can adjust the picture sizes for the login window/page? Thanks ahead of time. |
When I faced this issue few years before(2020 I guess) I followed following steps:
Press Window I Click Local Account at top left corner At right pane, under Account Settings => Click Your info At right pane, Choose a file => Browse files => Here I tried many photos after editing each time(including backup) and Viewed related images after pressing Windows L Finally I have selected an image having 240x240 size We can view related image using: regedit(Administrator) => HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AccountPicture\Users\Each_Key => Image* values Code using CYGWIN_NT/MINGW at windows: Code:
$ /usr/bin/cat.exe profile_image_location.sh |
Doesnt seem fixable at least not with my skill level but I'll keep searching for an answer. The great thing about Linux is 99% of the time I've discovered a solution and if not well I get to practice installation. Will mark as solved for now.

Try modifying your image size. Location of image size: Open regedit.exe drill down to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AccountPicture\Users Above Users used to have sub keys Click the available sub keys => Leave (Default) content. If nothing available other than (Default) content click next sub key. you can view images there. Open mspaint before editing that image take a backup. After that start editing that image and Press => Windows l => to view modified image format at login time. Quote:
a) mark the query as solved if resolved. b) network search used to provide searchers related to current url if resolved and that will help other searchers at network of networks. |
