This tutorial will show you how to turn on or off the display mode change animation for all users in Windows 11.

Starting with Windows 11 build 22631.3810, Microsoft added the registry key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM ForceDisableModeChangeAnimation (REG_DWORD). When you set its value to 1 (or a non-zero number), it turns off the display mode change animation. If the value is 0 or the key does not exist, the animation is set to on.

You must be signed in as an administrator to turn on or off the display mode change animation.




Here's How:

1 Do step 2 (enable) or step 3 (disable) below for what you want.

2 Enable Display Mode Change Animation

This is the default setting.


A) Click/tap on the Download button below to download the REG file below, and go to step 4 below.​

Enable_display_mode_change_animation_for_all_users.reg


(Contents of REG file for reference)
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Dwm]
"ForceDisableModeChangeAnimation"=dword:00000000

3 Disable Display Mode Change Animation

A) Click/tap on the Download button below to download the file below, and go to step 4 below.​

Disable_display_mode_change_animation_for_all_users.reg


(Contents of REG file for reference)
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Dwm]
"ForceDisableModeChangeAnimation"=dword:00000001

4 Save the .reg file to your desktop.

5 Double click/tap on the downloaded .reg file to merge it.

6 When prompted, click/tap on Run, Yes (UAC), Yes, and OK to approve the merge.

7 If you like, you can now delete the downloaded .reg file.


That's it,
Shawn Brink
