Overview Our scenarioĪs mentioned earlier, our customer was basically using Group policies to centrally manage and deploy Desktop Wallpaper on corporate workstations and laptops. This post will quickly explain how to visualize the newly deployed desktop wallpaper without the need of logging off and login on… However, this specific customer discovered that as long as a user wouldn’t perform a logoff/logon operation, the desktop wallpaper wouldn’t be updated and will not show the latest desktop image distributed via Group Policies through the network. The customer wanted to update on regular base the wallpaper in order to communicate critical information and guidance to their users. The Desktop Wallpaper was centrally managed and distributed to users through group policies. This customer decided to use Desktop wallpaper as communication medium in order to distribute information, recommendations or instructions to be followed during COVID-19 Crisis while working at company premises. We have been asked by a customer to find a way to quickly update the Desktop Wallpaper. The idea of this post comes from a real case scenario.
