If you are using a Windows 8.1 preview you will get reminded of it every second of the day, something that can get pretty annoying after a while. If you are using a preview, a small icon on the right side of your screen will appear saying any of the following lines:
- Test Mode Windows 8 Build 9200
- Test Mode Windows 8.1 Build 9490
- Test Mode Windows 8.1 Build 9600
- Test Mode Windows 8.1 Pro Build 9600
- Test Mode Windows 8.1 Enterprise Build 9600
How to remove the Windows 8.1 build 9600 watermark
- First, open up a command prompt and type the following: bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING OFF
- restart your computer
- The watermark should have disappeared. If it hasn’t please continue to step 4
- Download WCP Watermark Editor
- run the .exe file
- Check the “Remove all watermark” option
- Click on “Apply New Settings”
- Reboot your computer
- Reset your wallpaper
This should permanently remove the annoying “Test Mode” watermark on the right bottom of your screen.
