Persistent banner

Question

I am looking to produce a classification banner on the Windows platform that will ALWAYS display the classification level of the computer (simple one-word text). I am reluctant to install any third party applications to achieve this.

Is this possible with native windows functions?

Hello

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

Yes, it is possible to create a classification banner on a Windows platform using native functions without installing third-party applications. You can achieve this by using Group Policy and a PowerShell script.

Here are the hints for the script:

1. Use Add-Type to define a class that will allow you to change the wallpaper. Involve the SystemParametersInfo function from the user32.dll.
2. Call the SystemParametersInfo function to set the wallpaper.

Reference:

Add-Type (Microsoft.PowerShell.Utility) - PowerShell | Microsoft Learn

I hope the information above is helpful.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let us know.

Best Regards,
