#Requires -RunAsAdministrator
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Installs black screen overlay to hide Windows logon animations.
.DESCRIPTION
Creates and installs a fullscreen black overlay that covers the logon UI
animations, combined with registry tweaks for maximum suppression.
The overlay automatically dismisses when the desktop shell loads.
.NOTES
- Requires Administrator privileges
- Creates overlay executable and scheduled task
- Combines with registry animation suppression
- Completely safe - no system file modifications

Write-Host "`n📋 WHAT WAS INSTALLED:" -ForegroundColor Cyan
Write-Host " ✓ C# source code: $csPath"
Write-Host " ✓ Overlay executable: $exePath"
Write-Host " ✓ Scheduled task: Runs at system startup (highest priority)"
Write-Host " ✓ Registry tweaks: Core animation suppression applied"
Write-Host " ✓ Security: SYSTEM-level execution with highest priority"
Write-Host "`n💡 HOW IT WORKS:" -ForegroundColor Green
Write-Host " 1. At boot, black overlay launches before LogonUI"
Write-Host " 2. Covers ALL screens with solid black window (multi-monitor aware)"
Write-Host " 3. Uses Rectangle.Union for proper multi-monitor coverage"
Write-Host " 4. Stays on top of all animations and UI elements"
Write-Host " 5. Monitors for explorer.exe (desktop shell)"
Write-Host " 6. Waits 1000ms after shell detected (slow system support)"
Write-Host " 7. Dismisses itself gracefully"
Write-Host " 8. Result: Completely black transition to desktop"
Write-Host "`n🎯 WHAT YOU'LL SEE:" -ForegroundColor Green
Write-Host " • Windows logo during boot (normal)"
Write-Host " • Solid black screen (instead of animations)"
Write-Host " • Your desktop appears smoothly"
Write-Host " • NO profile picture, username, spinning wheel, or status text"
Write-Host "`n🖥️ MULTI-MONITOR SUPPORT:" -ForegroundColor Green
Write-Host " • Covers horizontal screen layouts"
Write-Host " • Covers vertical screen layouts"
Write-Host " • Covers mixed/irregular layouts"
Write-Host " • Uses Rectangle.Union for proper bounds calculation"
Write-Warning "`n⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTES:"
Write-Host " • Overlay has 10-second timeout (safety mechanism)"
Write-Host " • 1000ms delay after explorer.exe for slow systems"
Write-Host " • Auto-restart on failure (3 attempts)"
Write-Host " • Works with auto-login and password-protected accounts"
Write-Host " • Battery-friendly (runs on laptop battery)"
Write-Host " • Restart required to see it in action"
Write-Success "`n✅ ADVANTAGES:"
Write-Host " • Compiled with csc.exe for better compatibility"
Write-Host " • Fallback to Add-Type if csc.exe unavailable"
Write-Host " • No system file modifications"
Write-Host " • No security compromises"
Write-Host " • Update-proof (survives all Windows Updates)"
Write-Host " • Fully reversible (use uninstall script)"
Write-Host " • Zero performance impact"
