Hey,
I was trying to have some fun with my boyfriend, chaning his wallpaper. I couldn't figure it out, so I asked him for help, but he couldn't figure it out either. We both run win7, he's running PowerShell v2 and I got v3. We added each-others computers to trusted hosts, set execution policy to unrestricted, enabled psremoting, configured a home group, and know each-others credentials (admin). This is what we have tried:
Add-Type @"
using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using Microsoft.Win32;
namespace Wallpaper
{
public enum Style : int
{
Tile, Center, Stretch, NoChange
}
public class Setter {
public const int SetDesktopWallpaper = 20;
public const int UpdateIniFile = 0x01;
public const int SendWinIniChange = 0x02;
[DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError = true, CharSet = CharSet.Auto)]
private static extern int SystemParametersInfo (int uAction, int uParam, string lpvParam, int fuWinIni);
public static void SetWallpaper ( string path, Wallpaper.Style style ) {
SystemParametersInfo( SetDesktopWallpaper, 0, path, UpdateIniFile | SendWinIniChange );
RegistryKey key = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("Control Panel\\Desktop", true);
switch( style )
{
case Style.Stretch :
key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", "2") ;
key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", "0") ;
break;
case Style.Center :
key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", "1") ;
key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", "0") ;
break;
case Style.Tile :
key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", "1") ;
key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", "1") ;
break;
case Style.NoChange :
break;
}
key.Close();
}
}
}"@
