I've updated the error handling in this case so that DisplayFusion will tell you that it failed to access that key. That way people can troubleshoot the issue and have an idea of what is going on. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/logon-desktop-settings-bug/?ID=7a18aac6-ee52-4502-8abc-24e6657b46ff#8 Fri, 18 Jun 2010 21:28:49 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/logon-desktop-settings-bug/?ID=7a18aac6-ee52-4502-8abc-24e6657b46ff#8 DisplayFusion Jon - well tracked down, you are right! I had forgotten I modified the permissions on this key.
I had done this to prevent changes to the logon desktop background when changing a theme (changing a theme always reverts to the default logon background).
Sorry for the trouble ops:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\Background

It seems that you don't have access to write to this location (even when elevated), which could be caused by a domain policy.

I don't normally like to rush people, but I am holding back the final release to make sure this isn't a show-stopping bug.

The log should have a more detailed error.

I wanted to test your Logon Desktop settings implementation; however the procedure errors out.
I currently have a logon desktop image set via registry and C:\Windows\System32\oobe\info\backgrounds folder.
I go to DF settings Windows Logon; then check Allow DF to manage....; then select an image; click applly. I get elevation prompt then the error (image attached). W7 Ent x64
