Try one of these, depending on desire:
Specific user:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\ActiveDesktop
DWord Value: NoChangingWallPaper
Settings: 1 = Can't change Wallpaper. Other Desktop tab features
available.
Also disables Set as Background on the context menu.
0 = Can change Wallpaper
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
DWord Value: NoDispBackgroundPage
Settings: 1 = Desktop tab not available in Display Properties
0 = Desktop tab available
All Users:
Group Policy | User Configuration | Administrative Templates | Desktop |
Active Desktop
and set Wallpaper lock-out type.

Hello all,
Is there a way to prevent users from changing the desktop wallpaper in
WinXP. My company has one computer which is used by several different
dispatch personnel. Our director has a special wallpaper with company
logo
that should never be changed, but people change it anyway.
Is there a way to keep the same wallpaper visible and prevent other users
from changing it?
