Prevent ANY changes to desktop wallpaper

[Dianne C. Tillman]

How does one prevent students from using the "Set as desktop wallpaper" while on the internet?  Is there a way?
Thank you.

Group Policies works fantastic. User Config - Policies - Admin Templates - Control Panel/Personalization - Prevent changing desktop background.

There are a bunch of other "prevent changing" options there that you may want to use.

Thanks Brian. I know I have some of them set in the Student GP, but I will check that specific one.....I think I may have used active desktop? Can you tell I don't use GP very often?

Yes, that one is applied and enforced but I can log on as a student, right click on an image from the internet and choose "set as desktop wallpaper" and the image is on the desktop and stays there. Strange.

How about UC-Pol-Admin Temp-Desktop/Desktop- There are a bunch of wallpaper and desktop settings I have enabled there.

Thanks,

I checked that out and enabled some new ones. I think I may have it figured out now.
