Editing Lockscreen with Script via Registry
Hi Schulzi
You will need to create a Registry Value in key HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Personalization called LockScreenImage with a value of pointing to the file you want to use for lockscreen
You can also do this via Group Policy Computer Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > Control Panel > Personalization > “Force a specific default lock screen image”

did not worked for me...
If I edit the Registy-Entry, nothing happens-it wont change the Lockscreen Picture to the specified value.
Maybe I did something wrong?
Had to create the Registry-Key but normally that shouldn't be a problem.
And is it possible to create a Lockscreen-Diashow on the same way as well??

Hi Schulzi
Aside from the usual cavets with the machine being able to see the shared folder where the image resides, I'm not too sure what might have gone wrong. Does it work if you try it from the GPO, and if so is the reg key the same?
Hi HidMov
me again.
So now that I know how that works, can I create a Slideshow on the same way aswell?
After that, I think we should have everything for the Lockscreen via Registry for everybody that is looking editing Lockscreen via Registry
PS: The best for everyone to read is probably to get all in one post and mark it as "Best Response"
