TheBigDino Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Does anybody know where windows stores wallpaper settings, i've tried looking in the registry and changing every single likely settings but the wallpaper just doesn't change. I've tried restarting as well and that didn't make it work either. Please Help PS.If anyone knows how to change the wallpaper in vb that would be a great help too,thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aommaster Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 The wallpaper? Right click on your desktop, and click properties. Then, click the desktop tab! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dapthar Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 In Windows XP, the directory where wallpaper is stored is C:\WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper. Alternatively, you could put the file you want as wallpaper in your "My Pictures" folder, then right click on your desktop, click on Properties, go to the Desktop tab, and select the wallpaper you want.

5614 Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 if you ever need to find a file, assuming this is windows XP go: start>search, and if not XP then just use the search of find command in the start menu.... then just select scan everything, as it could be anywehere, insert the file name, the search results will tell you where the file is located Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
