Can you change the text 'header' on the popup when using cin to get an input?

When getting a user's input using cin, is there a way to change what the text on the popup box says? like can I make the text say enter password instead of "looks like they require an input" or whatever the default is? is it just adding a cout above the cin or?

You can use system function from window.h header file. Remember one thing computer do compile your code in default manner unless a instructions is not given in code to change that default manner. You can change color of text like system("COLOR 6C"); color change to yellow. There are many other useful method to make effect on terminal.

In Linux you can use control characters to get colored output (if terminal in which you are running your app supports colors - but these days it's common feature). With Google you can find plenty of examples.

like when you want a user to input something you use cin. but the popup has text set already to like "requires an input" or whatever. I was wondering if I could change the text in the popup to anything I wanted or is it set to default always.
