# Background

If you don't want the default Hero wallpaper and the random Logon Background, then you need to customize the Background.

## Web <a href="#web" id="web"></a>

This directory contains the 4k Wallpaper that is part of Windows 10. Windows does not honor a custom background set in Group Policy and a Custom Theme during Feature Updates (Upgrades). Unfortunately the only way to resolve this is to overwrite the Wallpaper that exists in this directory. Replace the contents of the Web directory with your custom Wallpaper. For my Enterprise, we use a solid blue color. Selecting a solid color prevents issues with stretching images.

## Background.bmp <a href="#background-bmp" id="background-bmp"></a>

Used for Windows 7

## LockScreen.jpg <a href="#lockscreen-jpg" id="lockscreen-jpg"></a>

Custom Lock Screen image if you are going to set one. Requires Local Policy to be set to use the custom Lock Screen background.

## Set-Background.ps1 <a href="#set-background-ps1" id="set-background-ps1"></a>

Script to make the modifications to the Background for the Lock Screen and the Wallpaper.

## Wallpaper.jpg <a href="#wallpaper-jpg" id="wallpaper-jpg"></a>

Custom Windows Wallpaper. Requires Local Policy to be set and modifications to the Theme file

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://osconfig.osdeploy.com/docs/untitled-1/background.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
