I think Windows 7 must somehow "cache" the previous wallpaper for the currently logged in user butĭon't worry, the change has been made. I'm assuming you are running the script in a task sequence from the Administrator profile. I guess it is cached somewhere and,Įven if the image changes, the old Windows wallpaper stays where it is.Ģ) At which point would you put the script during the task sequence? I'm putting it right after the OS installation but I'm not sure that is the right place. The image is renamed, the new image is copied BUT the Wallpaper does not change, even after the reboot. XCOPY "%_thisdir%CopyDir\*.*" "%SystemRoot%\Web\Wallpaper\Windows" /D /E /C /R /I /K /Yġ) I did what you said: prepared the script and ran it on my own computer to see if it works and it does. :: Copy custom Wallpaper to default Wallpaper location:
RENAME %SystemRoot%\Web\Wallpaper\Windows\img0.jpg imgX.jpg :: Rename original Wallpaper file so it will still be present and usable: :: Replace ACLS for original default Wallpaper file with default inherited ACLS: TAKEOWN /F %SystemRoot%\Web\Wallpaper\Windows\img0.jpg :: Take ownership of original default Wallpaper file: I am copying my custom wallpaper file from a folder named "CopyDir" inside the folder the script is executed OFF

Here's the code from a batch script I use to set a custom wallpaperĪt my job (heavily commented so you can see what I'm doing).
You can circumvent this by taking ownership for the file in a script. It sounds though because that file has some special permissions on it that prevent it from being overwritten. This is actually a bit more complicated than This was something I struggled with a lot as well! What you want to do is replace the default Windows Wallpaper file (C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper\Windows\img0.jpg) with a custom walpaper file of the same name (img0.jpg).
