Any pointers would be greatly appreciated! So after a lot of further searching around, cobbling together and testing I have come up with the below script that does the job. The one caveat to it working that I found is that if you have a GPO applied to set the desktop image file then this will override anything that the script will do once the 'Refresh' function is run.
Why not work out just what is causing the GPO to fail? A GPO really is the best way to achieve this. Also - given this is a logon script, I'd argue that there's no reason to create a function - just put the entire block into a script and move on! The problem is that as far as the client is concerned there is no problem. GPRESULT does not report any problems in applying the GPO and the updated background displays within the preview area of the Personalisation menu, but does not actually ever refresh the active wallpaper.
So far the only way we've managed to get this to work is to either have the wallpaper file have a different filename or change the wallpaper to a solid colour and then back to an image file.
Here take Remove Everything as an example. Select " Just remove my files " or " Remove files and clean the drive " when you are asked if you want to clean the drive. If your computer is problematic, it's suggested to completely clean the system disk. In the Ready to reset this PC window, confirm the items need to be removed and click " Reset ".
It will retain any data it can find, but removes all applications, including those preinstalled by the manufacturer. Upon reset, it will reinstall any Microsoft Store apps that had been previously installed. A few seconds later, you will see the Fresh start window. Click Next to continue. Then, it will start to download any required files and perform the refresh process. Just wait until the process complete, and restart your computer to see the fresh version of the operating system.
No matter which way you choose, resetting or refreshing Windows 10 will remove all the software you installed, even some of the preinstalled apps. Then, you need to spend much time reinstalling programs you will use. Then, you may be confused, do you really have to reset your PC when your system has problems? The answer is absolutely NO if you create a complete system backup while everything runs well. With this, you can restore system image to new hard drive including the operating system, installed programs, games, personal data, etc.
As mentioned earlier, a full system backup can help you protect your computer. Now let's learn how to make it. You need the best free backup software that has the ability to backup system including everything on the system partition. In order to get all the latest files and programs in the backup, it is capable of backing up system on a regular basis , such as, daily, weekly, monthly. Would that backup the entire system every time? Does it spend much time and require a very large backup disk?
Below are some advantages of this software:. In addition, you can choose to create a bootable USB , which can help you boot your computer when it fails and and restore system image easily and quickly. Step 1.
Step 2. Click System Backup under the Backup tab. We have several versions like vista, 98, xp and ME though all are home pc none run bit. On Xp it works at least in mine Try it :. And read my comment under your question, please. Smile4ever 3, 1 1 gold badge 23 23 silver badges 28 28 bronze badges. Did anyone try this with Windows 8. The CLI Refresh tool does not seem to do anything.
The link to the refresh tool on the sepago site is dead. Dead: that includes WayBackMachine: the page is not there either. Nor in archive. It seems like a similar tool. Maybe it will work. Does it have to be strictly native commands?
I have not tried it on Vista or 7. And here we have the reason why Windows is forced to name the desktop window "Program Manager", even 15 years after Windows 3 died. Joey That's a bit of a stretch. Metalhead Metalhead 1, 1 1 gold badge 17 17 silver badges 27 27 bronze badges.
