How to remove first time signing message on the login screen in Windows installation?

I have a windows installation of Splunk 7.2.4.2 enterprise edition. I keep getting the message

"First time signing in?

If you installed this instance, use the username and password you created at installation. Otherwise, use the username and password that your Splunk administrator gave you.

If you've forgotten your credentials, contact your Splunk administrator.
"
on the login screen. how can I remove this message.

Thanks!

Hi @hemanthj642,

Here are the steps :

1-Install Splunk
2-touch $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/.ui_login
3-Do the rest

From here :
https://answers.splunk.com/answers/102966/how-can-i-disable-password-change-request-at-first-time-login-to-splunkweb.html

You can use equivalent of touch for windows such as echo > $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/.ui_login

Cheers,
David
