I wonder is there a way for Windows 11 to show the/a login imagine when restarting or shutting the system down as a normal user in the same way you see the login background when restarting or shutting down from the lock-screen itself?
To give a better explanation of what I mean I have two older screenshots from Windows 10 though Windows 11 has the same behavior.
Restarting / Shutting Down from within a logged-in user shows a solid-colored background or in Win 11's case, a solid black:
Restarting / Shutting Down from the Lock Screen:
From my limited knowledge it seems that when running Shutdown.exe as a normal user it shows no image while running it from within a SYSTEM user or from within LogonUi it does? Is there a way to force a picture being shown all the time like it was in Windows XP, Vista and Win7?

If there's any way to do this, it'd be with editing the XAML PRI for the logon screen, which I don't think is possible right now.

You will most likely have to have the Shutdown / Windows Security screen fully transparent or use your Lock Screen Wallpaper, but yeah as mentioned already we can't do this yet.
But in theory you could just have those screens transparent and a script or something would run WallpaperHost on the SYSTEM user's "desktop" (or black void, literally).

That's very interesting, thanks to both of you. If I get you right people are at least looking into more login-screen customization?
