Till we’ve covered apps to disable Windows 8 Metro UI, all these apps uses the registry hack changes “RPEnabled” string value from 1 to 0, finally a developer Ruanmei came up with freeware portable Windows 8 Start Tweaker which lets you change Metro Start Screen background with the custom image.
This app lets you also change background color of Windows 8 start Screen or logon screen. Logon screen appears for shorter time, so I don’t have problem with green color, you can change it anyway with this app. But what matters the most is changing Windows 8 Metro Screen background.
