Windows 10 Personalize Wallpaper not saving

Scenario: A user changes their desktop wallpaper in Windows 10 to a default Windows 10 wallpaper. When they log off and back on I expect the desktop wallpaper setting to stay, but it reverts back to the original. What UEM Personalization do I need to have configured for this to work?

You can use the built-in template in UEM. Go to the Personalization tab and create a new config file, Use a Windows Common Setting template, Wallpaper - AppData not redirected.

It contains the following settings:

# This Flex config file references the built-in "Wallpaper - AppData NOT redirected"

# Windows Common Setting.

# It has been configured to be 'OS-specific' (on the Advanced tab).

# Wallpaper settings will be imported at logon and exported at logoff.

# IMPORTANT: This Flex config file assumes that you have NOT redirected the AppData folder.

# If you have redirected AppData, disable or delete this Flex config file and create a new

# Flex config file selecting the "Wallpaper - AppData redirected" Windows Common Setting.

#

# Expanded settings for Windows Common Setting 'Wallpaper':
