Windows 10: No location for current applied wallpaper?

Hi Guys

In the past I had this folder...but is now not there?
%AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Themes\CachedFiles

I basically have an image of low res which I set as a tiled background image....I then want to browse that saved tiled image to keep a copy , so that I can deploy to other devices.

Has the location changed ... or is only the transcoded (original non tiled version ) option now visible?

Thx for any help.

:)

 

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.
