wallpaper path, help needed

[amardeepsingh]

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

"BackupWallpaper"="c:\\windows\\web\\wallpaper\\xppaper.jpg"

"Wallpaper"="c:\\windows\\web\\wallpaper\\xppaper.jpg"

the above is the default way to give path to your custom wallpaper

but i dont install my uxp on c drive always , i have multibooting so my drive letter changes dynamically

can u plz give me the syntax for using %systemroot% or %systemdrive% such as

%systemroot%\\Web\\Wallpaper\\name_of_wallpaper

is the above syntax of mine correct , if not tell me the correct one.

moreover i am using classic theme and the wallpaper doesnt appear on it.

rather it shows blue color screen without any wallpaper.

plz help

to use that, you can't use REG_SZ entry,

but REG_EXPAND_SZ

to do this correctly, make a REG_EXPAND_SZ value in an appropiate place using regedit, then export this entry to a reg file
