Dear buddies

I want to deploy desktop wallpaper slideshow (every 10 min change all my client's background) via GPMC.

How can I do this work in my domain.

best regards

    Hi there,

    Yes , it is possible. In Group Policy Management Editor, expand User Configuration, expand Administrative Templates, expand Desktop, and then click Desktop. In the details pane, double-click Desktop Wallpaper.

    To enable this setting click Enabled. The wallpaper name should be set to either local path of the image or it can be UNC path.

    I hope this information helps. If you have any questions please let me know and I will be glad to help you out.

    Why has no one answered this yet? Agreed, Matthew's response is only for static wallpaper and not the slideshow. I'm looking for a solution for this as well.
