 # BootShellCredentialProvider
-Windows 10 Credential Provider intended to simplify the process of logging directly into alternative shells to Windows Explorer.
+
+BSCP lets you boot Windows directly into a Linux desktop experience, using Windows' native Logon UI and a combination of Xming & WSL upon login. 
+
+This project consists of several components:
+
+- Configurator: friendly desktop app for modifying the configuration
+- RegProvider: helper library for interacting with the registry (nothing special here)
+- ConfigurableShell: Replaces the Windows Explorer Shell at boot time. Checks the registry settings and loads the specified desktop environment (Windows Explorer, XFCE, or whatever else you can get to work)
+- BootShellCredentialProvider: Plugin for WinLogon using the CredentialProvider v2 interface. This component shows you the available desktop environments and sets the selected one in the registry
+
+Note: This project requires extensive modification to the registry to work and executes native code both before and after logging in. Use at own risk.
