Creating Custom Lock Screen and Wallpaper Images for Devices Using Win32 Packages
Question
Hi All,
I would like to have a lock screen + Wallpaper image made for my devices. There are many ways to do this, but unfortunately it is also often the case that the Wallpaper is locked so that the user cannot change it again.
What is your solution that you have the best experience with?
I would prefer that images are not on a public URL, or Blob storage, but in a win32 package

This is only I made past 2 years because machines are pro not enterprise, I used power shell under Intune blade, the script will download/saved the background on C drive then script will change it. You can find it thru google

I ended up simply uploading a .jpg to a blob storage, and referencing the file via a configuration profile. Works fine. hope it’s not a wrong way to do it

We copy the file to the c drive and use a config policy to point to the file

Something like this? You will also need another file to detect successful installation and images but you should be able to get an idea from this one :
$PackageName = “Wallpaper”
$Version = “1a.01”
# Set image file names for desktop background and lock screen
# leave blank if you with not to set either of one
$WallpaperIMG = “img0.jpg”
$LockscreenIMG = “backgroundDefault.jpg”
$CustomFolder = “Branding_ VSM”
Start-Transcript -Path “$env: Program DataMicrosoftIntune Management ExtensionLogs$PackageName-install.log” -Force
$ErrorActionPreference = “Stop”
# Set variables for registry key path and names of registry values to be modified
$RegKeyPath = “HKLM:SOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPersonalization CSP”
$DesktopPath = “Desktop Image Path”
$DesktopStatus = “Desktop Image Status”
$DesktopUrl = “Desktop Image URL”
$LockScreenPath = “Lock Screen Image Path”
$LockScreenStatus = “Lock Screen Image Status”
$LockScreenUrl = “Lock Screen Image URL”
$StatusValue = “1”
# local path of images
$RootPath = “C:WindowsSystem32$CustomFolder”
$WallpaperLocalIMG = “$Root PathDesktop.jpg”
$LockscreenLocalIMG = “$Root PathLockscreen.jpg”
# Check whether both image file variables have values, output warning message and exit if either is missing
if (!$Lock screen IMG -and !$Wallpaper IMG){
Write-Warning “Either Lock screen IMG or Wallpaper IMG must has a value.”
}
else{
# Check whether registry key path exists, create it if it does not
if(!(Test-Path $RegKeyPath)){
Write-Host “Creating registry path: $($RegKeyPath).”
New-Item -Path $RegKeyPath -Force
}
if(!(Test-Path $RootPath)){
Write-Host “Creating root path: $($RootPath).”
New-Item -Path $RootPath -Force -ItemType Directory
}
if ($LockscreenIMG){
Write-Host “Copy lock screen “”$($LockscreenIMG)”” to “”$($LockscreenLocalIMG)”””
Copy-Item “.Data$LockscreenIMG” $LockscreenLocalIMG -Force
Write-Host “Creating reg keys for lock screen”
New-Item Property -Path $RegKeyPath -Name $LockScreenStatus -Value $StatusValue -Property Type DWORD -Force
New-Item Property -Path $RegKeyPath -Name $LockScreenPath -Value $LockscreenLocalIMG -Property Type STRING -Force
New-Item Property -Path $RegKeyPath -Name $LockScreenUrl -Value $LockscreenLocalIMG -Property Type STRING -Force
}
if ($WallpaperIMG){
Write-Host “Copy wallpaper “”$($WallpaperIMG)”” to “”$($WallpaperLocalIMG)”””
Copy-Item “.Data$WallpaperIMG” $WallpaperLocalIMG -Force
Write-Host “Creating reg keys for wallpaper”
New-Item Property -Path $RegKeyPath -Name $DesktopStatus -Value $StatusValue -Property Type DWORD -Force
New-Item Property -Path $RegKeyPath -Name $DesktopPath -Value $WallpaperLocalIMG -Property Type STRING -Force
New-Item Property -Path $RegKeyPath -Name $DesktopUrl -Value $WallpaperLocalIMG -Property Type STRING -Force
}
}
New-Item -Path “C:Program DataVSMValidation$PackageName” -ItemType “file” -Force -Value $Version
