I went through a lot of trial and error with another customer before we finally found that solution :) ]]> RE: Error trying to set windows logon background https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/error-trying-to-set-windows-logon-background/?ID=b62ba520-62b0-40d8-b911-3ecd7e3473a2#4 Fri, 04 May 2012 14:32:02 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/error-trying-to-set-windows-logon-background/?ID=b62ba520-62b0-40d8-b911-3ecd7e3473a2#4 DisplayFusion Yep that sorted it.

I created a C:\windows\System32\oobe\INFO\temp folder and moved all the backgrounds to it, and now it's being applied properly.

I've no idea how you worked out that solution, but thanks :-) ]]> RE: Error trying to set windows logon background https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/error-trying-to-set-windows-logon-background/?ID=b62ba520-62b0-40d8-b911-3ecd7e3473a2#3 Fri, 04 May 2012 13:28:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/error-trying-to-set-windows-logon-background/?ID=b62ba520-62b0-40d8-b911-3ecd7e3473a2#3 DisplayFusion Could you try moving all of the files out of the "C:\windows\System32\oobe\INFO\backgrounds" folder? Some OEM's put images there and it seems to mess up DisplayFusion. After emptying that folder, the Windows Logon Background should apply correctly.

Thanks! ]]> RE: Error trying to set windows logon background https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/error-trying-to-set-windows-logon-background/?ID=b62ba520-62b0-40d8-b911-3ecd7e3473a2#2 Thu, 03 May 2012 08:12:26 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/error-trying-to-set-windows-logon-background/?ID=b62ba520-62b0-40d8-b911-3ecd7e3473a2#2 DisplayFusion I tried giving "Users" and "Domain_Users" modify access to;
"C:\windows\System32\oobe\INFO\backgrounds\backgrounddefault.jpg"
but it didn't seem to ake a difference. ]]> Error trying to set windows logon background https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/error-trying-to-set-windows-logon-background/?ID=b62ba520-62b0-40d8-b911-3ecd7e3473a2 Thu, 03 May 2012 08:07:02 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/error-trying-to-set-windows-logon-background/?ID=b62ba520-62b0-40d8-b911-3ecd7e3473a2 DisplayFusion Hi, I've got a problem trying to apply wallpaper to logon/lock screens.

I go into "Settings >> Windows Logon >>
Enable "Allow DisplayFusionto manage the Windows Logon Background" and
Enable "Use the current Desktop Wallpaper image for the Windows Logon Background".

When I click on Apply, i'm prompted for the UAC, so I give it my domain admin credentials and then i'm prompted with two error messages. Both of which are attached.

It's Windows 7 Professional 64bit, running as a non admin, UAC on, then using domain admin credentials to elelvate when necessary
I've just updated to 4.0, and restarted my PC after doing so.

Any ideas why this is not working? ]]>
