They were 547kb, so I reduced the quality a bit in photoshop got it down to 252kb.
Still not working.
Double check to make sure that all images in the folder are below this size, and that you have merged the .reg file to enable this.
You might also try removing the 2560x1600 file as a test to see if it will work with just the backgroundDefault.jpg file. It will be stretched to fit though.
Yup, everything looks correct.
Here is a SS with the regs editor open to the correct place and correct value & the details of the images in the backgrounds folder.
I've tried setting them to read only also.
Just having the backgroundDefault.jpg didn't work. But it's the same size also.
ok, Just got it. I resized the backgroundDefault.jpg to 1900x1200 and tried it with only that.
IT WORKED. lol
So I'm guessing there is a max size also 2560x1600 images do not work but 1900x1200 works on computers with 2560x1600 resolution.
I have no info folder
Hi everybody
One caveat with this
If you CHANGE your desktop background (not the LOGON screen BTW -- this is the desktop image in "Personalize") / theme / User picture (the little square box you see by your user name) then you need to re-run the registry fix again otherwise you'll just get the bog standard default logon screen again.
It also fails if you have a "Slideshow" desktop -- pictures changing every 30 mins.
Any good "Scripters" out there
A script which fixes the Registry everytime you change the desktop background would be better or even better still something that stops it being re-set unless you explicitly want it to.
(Note please don't confuse Desktop Backgrond (Wallpaper) with the Logon Screen.)

Hi Jimbo,
Mine still works even after changing the Desktop Background. It may just not work properly in your 7048 build number.
