Windows 10: Desktop wallpaper migrated to another PC

I recently set up a new tower PC for our church office with 2 users, 1 general use, the other for restricted use. General user wallpaper was a Windows 10 default. For the restricted user I created a specific wallpaper so it would be obvious when in that user; the restricted user isn't used that much. A week or so later I noticed that the laptop used for Zooming the church services had acquired the restricted user wallpaper. To the best of my knowledge that wallpaper file has never been near the laptop, it's not on a USB stick. Both PCs are on the internet via the church network. I really can't imagine how the wallpaper file got there, I'll have a look in the laptop's registry tomorrow and see what the filename is. It's not a serious issue, the 2 PCs can't access each other AFAIK. Any thoughts on how this could have happened?

Desktop wallpaper for new users

Hi Alaa,

Setting default users lets you specify the wallpaper on user's desktops and prevents other users from changing the image or its presentation. You can check these steps on how to set wallpapers from all users:

• Type run on the search bar and press Enter.
• On the window, type gpedit.msc and click OK.
• Locate and click Administrative Templates.
• Select Desktop > Desktop > Desktop Wallpaper.
• Tick Enabled, and name your wallpaper.
• Select Apply and click OK.

After performing the steps above, you may restart your PC.

Let us know the outcome. We will be glad to assist you.
