    Copy a file on users desktop


    I want to copy a file to all domain users desktop in windows7 or windows8.

    Like in Windows XP- C:\Documents and Settings\All users\Desktop
    If i copy a file in all users desktop folder it appears to all the domain users logged on to that computer.
    Is this kind of feature not available in windows7 or windows 8.

    I dont want to do with group policy.

    c:\users\public\desktop
