Write your welcome message when you start your computer

Write your welcome message when you start your computer

One little trick you can use to write a message that you will hear when starting the system.

What you need:

Let's start:

  1. Open Notepad and copy the script:
    Dim speaks, speech
    
    speaks="Welcome to your PC, Username"
    
    Set speech=CreateObject("sapi.spvoice")
    
    speech.Speak speaks

    You can change the order: where you will enter your name "Welcome to your PC, Username" instead of  "Username". You can also change the whole sentence, it just has to be in English.
  2. Save the script (ctrl + s) named "welcome.vbs
  3. Open the "Startup programs" folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup (For win XP),
    or C:\Users\User-Name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup (For windows 7 and Vista)
    Copy the file you saved earlier here.
  4. The next time you start the system, you will be greeted by a message you wrote.

Note: The message will be spoken in English.
