And this is the hidden one, called “Aurora”:

To enable the hidden BootScreen:

• 1.Open the start menu search box.
• 2.Type “msconfig” and hit enter.
• 3.Open the Boot tab.
• 4.Check the “No GUI boot” checkbox.
  5.Hit OK.
• 6.Reboot the computer.
• The new boot screen should appear immediately.

  Note: A Windows Defender error may appear on the next startup. This error can be made to go away by enabling the system config utility using the tray icon.
