# The SetWallpaper script is around in various places on the internet. The script is nice. Actually, the RegistryKey key = ... should be set prior to calling SystemParametersInfo. This fix allows changes in WallpaperStyle to take immediate effect.
#
#requires -version 2.0
## Set-Wallpaper - set your windows desktop wallpaper
