Answer 1

Hello,

To hide the domain name on the Windows login screen, you can follow these steps:

1. Start the registry editor (regedit.exe).
2. Navigate to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon registry subkey.
3. From the Edit menu, select New, DWORD value.
4. Enter a name of NoDomainUI and press Enter.
5. Double-click the new value and set it to 1. Click OK.
6. Reboot the machine.

This will remove the domain field from the login screen and the user will need to enter the full UPN to log in. Like ******@xyz.com

I hope the information above is helpful.
