Frequently Asked Questions
Here is list of common questions and scenarios that may be encountered while using Any Logo Screensaver Creator.
Screensaver Settings
- How do I stop the options on the screensaver being modified?On the More Options stage on the wizard, check Do now allow the options to be changed.
- How do I just have a blank screen saver?Simply disable every screensaver mode.
- Can I stop the screensaver from closing when the mouse is moved?In the General section of the screensaver options, use the Ignore option. You can chose to ignore mouse movement, mouse clicks, or key presses.
- My logo is too largeOn the first step of the wizard, where you select your logo, click on Scale Image. This will let you resize your image.
Installer
- How do I make my screensaver the welcome screen or login screensaver?
- On Step 4: Create your screensaver, check 'Create an installer for the Screensaver', to make a self-installing screensaver.
- Click on the 'Options' button.
- Now select the checkbox 'Logon Screensaver'.
This feature sets your screensaver to be the one that is shown before anyone has logged in to the computer. This is while the login screen is shown when the computer has first started, or after the user has logged off.
- How can I easily install my screensaver over a network?You can add a command to execute the screensaver installer in your network's login script. You will be interested in using the following command-line options:
/SILENT- This instructs the setup program to not ask the user any questions. Only the copy progress will be shown.
/VERYSILENT-
This works like the
/SILENT, but nothing will be displayed to the user. /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES-
Used in addition to the
/SILENTand/VERYSILENT, this option tells the installer not to display any messages, and give the default answer to any questions. These are the 'safe' answers, such as 'Yes' to 'Keep newer file?' and 'No' to 'File exists, confirm overwrite'.
- How do I make a self extracting installer for my screensaver?
On Step 4: Create your screensaver, check 'Create an installer for the Screensaver', to make a self-installing screensaver.
This feature makes it especially easy for you to distribute your screensaver to other people, or to multiple computers over a network. The installer will copy the screensaver to the correct location on the computer, and if you wish it can be activated, set as the login screensaver, place an entry in the user's Start Menu, and you can even let it install an uninstaller.
