How can i change the WALLPAPER of my welcome screen using
Registry Edit? The picture is a .jpg located in a folder
on my desktop.
I tried to goto regedit -> hkey_users -> default ->
control panel -> desktop, wallpaper, typein C:\Documents
and Settings\<myusername>\Desktop\Pictures\nk.jpg
But it doesn't work.
Can Anyone help me?
Thanks

Hi,

You can only specify BMP files. Jpegs cannot be specified there.
