Your desktop background is the first thing you see when you start your computer or switch between applications. Having a personalized background can bring a sense of joy, inspiration, and motivation to your workday. It’s a small change that can have a big impact on your overall productivity and mood. Setting wallpaper is one of the easiest tasks in the Windows Operating system, You can download and set any wallpaper from the internet. Or you can install any third-party apps to set wallpaper and change it automatically. But if your organizations set any policy to restrict users to change the wallpaper. Then it is very difficult to set wallpaper. If you go to the Personalization option to set the background, then you can see “Some of these settings are hidden or managed by your organization” warning message. We don’t have access to Disable these policies, because these policies are not set locally. Most of the corporate companies use SCCM to push the policy from the server. If you can’t change these policies locally and if you try to change any policy, then from the next Gpupdate the settings will change the default. If you’re part of an organization where the desktop background is managed centrally, you might think your hands are tied. But fear not!
