OEM logo

Which logo are you referring to?
From Google AI:
In Windows 11, the OEM logo, which used to be visible in the "Performance Information and Tools" section of the Control Panel, is no longer displayed there. It is also not shown in the Settings app. The OEM logo is primarily displayed during the boot process on the boot screen and during POST (Power-On Self-Test). If you are not seeing the OEM logo during boot, it could be due to your system using UEFI and Secure Boot, which often show the PC/MOBO manufacturer's logo instead of the Windows or OEM logo.
For UEFI mode installations you see the motherboard manufacturer or the computer manufacturer logo with the spinning curves (spinning dots in earlier versions). This logo can be changed either in UEFI firmware or using a utility from manufacturer. If you have an unsupported computer and you have a Legacy BIOS mode installation instead, you see a blue Windows logo (cyan in Windows 10) with the spinning dots. As far as I know this logo cannot be changed. If anyone knows different, please post.

To change the OEM logo one easy way it to use Winaero Tweaker which also provides many other tweaks without having to manually modify the Registry. In latest Windows 11 versions the Windows logo no longer appears, only the OEM logo. If you want to replace the Windows logo in "traditional" System Properties (valid for earlier versions that it appears) and for the About Windows window (winver), you have to modify these two system files with Resource Hacker:
C:\Windows\Branding\Basebrd\basebrd.dllC:\Windows\Branding\shellbrd\shellbrd.dllThese cannot be modified directly, you have to copy the files in another folder, then take ownership of the folders and the files, End Task File Explorer (because it uses the files), replace them from Command Prompt or PowerShell and then load File Explorer for the changes to take effect.

This is how my About Window looks like after replacing the wrong "Windows 10" text with "Windows 11" and the Windows 7 start button (orb). I use the Aero Lite theme in order to het the good old red "close" buttons.
Here is how my System Properties (classic) looks like:
Yes, since it is a custom-build PC, I am the "Manufacturer".

Okay, is there a reg key or powershell script for this because I am making custom ISO files?
