How to Configure and Deploy Windows 10 Desktop Wallpaper with GPO
Implementing a wallpaper to your desktops within your office using a GPO is super easy and you can actually centralize the wallpaper into a share folder.
Step 1: Create a folder to drop your wallpaper into:
Step 2: Right click the folder and share it out. I added a $ to hide the folder
Step 3: Click on Permissions and make sure the Everyone is set to Read
Step 4: Add or make sure Domain Users is part of the security tab and set it as Read & Execute
Step 5: Create a GPO policy within the Group Policy Managment
Step 6: Right click on the new GPO and click on Edit
Step 7: Go to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Desktop > Desktop > “Desktop Wallpaper”
Step 8: Click on Enabled
Step 9: Make sure to use the UNC path for the location of your wallpaper

Hi,
Now i format and install new activated windows10. after join in a domain only 1st time wallpaper will change when you change the new wallpaper on server side in the folder but client side still same(old wallpaper).if u have change the wallpaper on client side u have to delete current profile on client side tn u crate new profile tn new wallpaper can apply.
but if u have windows 7 os on client side no need to do this thinks just put wallpaper on syswoll folder apply the group policy that it.
you have other option for windows 10. plz guide me.
