Change lock screen from script.

[VidathD]

Is there a way to change the lock screen through a script? 

I want to force the same lock screen image on every user. I tried this, but didn't work.

 

function Set-MachinePermissions {
    $RegistryPathPersonalization = 'HKLM:\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Personalization'

    If (-NOT (Test-Path $RegistryPathPersonalization)) {
        New-Item -Path $RegistryPathPersonalization -Force
    }

    New-ItemProperty -Path $RegistryPathPersonalization -Name 'LockScreenImage' -Value 'C:\Windows\Web\CSImages\LockScreen.jpg' -PropertyType 'String'
    New-ItemProperty -Path $RegistryPathPersonalization -Name 'LockScreenOverlaysDisabled' -Value '1' -PropertyType 'DWORD'
    New-ItemProperty -Path $RegistryPathPersonalization -Name 'NoChangingLockScreen' -Value '1' -PropertyType 'DWORD'
    New-ItemProperty -Path $RegistryPathPersonalization -Name 'NoLockScreenSlideshow' -Value '1' -PropertyType 'DWORD'
}

Set-MachinePermissions

That is just a Group Policy:

Computer Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > Control Panel > Personalization

Do it for each user.

@GoodBytes It does the same thing as above registry edit.
