How to change the default wallpaper folder of Windows to your favourite one.
This is almost a follow up post of How to Add your favorite picture to the default Windows wallpaper list. So please read that post also.
The default Windows Wallpaper folder is %SystemRoot%\Web\Wallpaper where normally %SystemRoot% is C:\Windows . The location where the Desktop properties look for Wallpaper is saved in the Registry Key :
MyComputer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
\Currentversion
as a Multi String Value with a name WallpaperDir and having the the location of default wallpaper folder.
All you need to change it to the folder you need by double clicking it and saving the new Location. Check out the new location I gave and the corresponding list shown as wallpapers.
This is the value of my favorite folder. Now the change is immediate and you need not restart the Computer or Windows Explorer. Just Take Display Properties»Desktop
