so I’m playing a bit of a joke on a workmate, I want to change his wall paper but I need to do it from my computer. I can get full access to his hard drive accross our network. Is there anyway I can do this? Like maybe there’s a file I can edit that defines the location of his background?
Cheers all :love:
you could go to the file he’s using as his background, copy that to a different name, and save the new one with the same name as his old one.
btw, this may not be a good idea- if your boss finds out that you “hacked” someones computer you could be looking for another job 
ya I might give that a go once I’ve worked out his computer name, and my bosses would see the funny side of it if they found out (which they won’t ;))
I thought there was another way of doing it tho… changing a person’s wallpaper even if they don’t have one set?
Also, I take it he won’t see the new one until he restarts his computer? that might not be for a looooong time
yeah, not until he restarts or refreshes his desktop i believe…
remote desktop
BTW, dont hold it against me if you spend the next three months scanning www.monster.com
yeah in theory you should be able to make a new desktop and save it over the top of the old one. I guess then he’d just have to refresh his desktop or log out/shutdown/restart and blam. should be fine! (or not :P)
the funniest thing is doing a printscreen of someone’s desktop (with icons and all) and then making it the background and setting “view desktop items” to off! 
Moving the whole office to another building without telling someone is funny too!
