changing default wallpaper?

[kC_]

hi, i followed the guide too change the default wallpaper

i have the modified file here

XPCD\$OEM$\$$\Web\Wallpaper\Bliss2.bmp

and in regtweaks.reg i have

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\General]

"BackupWallpaper"="c:\\windows\\web\\wallpaper\\Bliss2.bmp"

"Wallpaper"="c:\\windows\\web\\wallpaper\\Bliss2.bmp"

but it doesnt change, it stays as normal bliss.bmp

the file is copied over, as i can manually change it after installed

Maybe check the cmd files that you use, as I know that my prepare file (and others) deletes the c:\windows\web\wallpaper\*.bmp files, so either copy it over after you run that certain cmd file, or set it to look on another partition if you have one.

i had a idea but i explore it was wrong so i removed my post.

i was sure it was

[Shell]

Try this one

Put your filename.bmp file in \$OEM$\$$\Web\Wallpaper\filename.bmp

and add this reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

; Set the default wallpaper

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]"Wallpaper"="C:\\WINDOWS\\web\\wallpaper\\filemane.bmp"

"WallpaperStyle"="2"

"TileWallpaper"="0"

rename your wallpaper into "bliss.jpg"

then move the file on your desktop and open a dos session :

cd desktop
makecab bliss.jpg

Move bliss.jp_ into your i386 folder

the original bliss and mine are both .bmp

is it ok too just do

cd desktop

makecab bliss.bmp
