HKEY_USER changes revert on scrnsave.exe
I'm trying to implement a site-wide screen saver that runs when no one
is logged on. I've been able to modify the timeout and other settings found under HKEY_USER\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop\ scrnsave.exe setting, but it is constantly rewritten back to logon.scr! I even tried using the same name but again, the original file returns. I think I need to bark up more than just the HKEY_USERS tree but I'm not entirely sure what the "order of operations" is for this one. Thanks!

HKEY_USER changes revert on scrnsave.exe
If I remember correctly, default user settings are applicable to newly
created ID not to existing ID, furthermore it maybe the cache of last logon user. "Alan" wrote in message oups.com...
