Customizing the desktop wallpaper is often seen as a way to reinforce corporate branding on devices managed by the organization. Windows wallpaper settings allow businesses to ensure that every company-owned device displays the enterprise’s logo or trademark.
Administrators can configure the wallpaper with the organization’s logo or any image they choose and apply it to an entire fleet of devices. This customization also allows them to set wallpapers for all users on a device and decide if they should be updated periodically.
