Morning All
I'm using Windows 2008 R2 Server with Window 7 Machines.
I've set up a Group policy with Recording batch scripts Logging on & Off plus Locking and unlocking.

The problem when I apply the Screen Saver.
Some of the machines work fine showing the pictures I want them to see by redirecting them through a regedit I did
Others just have a blank screen and others just don't lock ( or go on screen saver).
GPO I use:
User Configuration - Administrative Templates - Control Panel - Personalization
Enable Screen Saver - Enabled
Prevent Changing Screen Saver - Enabled
Password Protect the Screen Saver - Enabled
Screen Saver Timeout - Enabled ((240 seconds) 4 minutes)
Force Specific Screen Saver - Enabled (PhotoScreensaver.scr)
Prevent Changing Screen Saver - Enabled
Password Protect the Screen Saver - Enabled
Screen Saver Timeout - Enabled ((240 seconds) 4 minutes)
Force Specific Screen Saver - Enabled (PhotoScreensaver.scr)
Then I have 4 update registry Keys
3 of them are placed
HKEY_CURRENT_USER - Control Panel - Desktop
ScreenSaverIsSecure - value 1
ScreenSaveTimeOut - 60
SCRNSAVE.EXE - C:Windowssystem32PhotoScreensaver.scr
HKEY_CURRENT_USER - Control Panel - Desktop
ScreenSaverIsSecure - value 1
ScreenSaveTimeOut - 60
SCRNSAVE.EXE - C:Windowssystem32PhotoScreensaver.scr
The other 2 are placed in :
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerUser Shell Folders - My Pictures - 'SERVER'Scripts$Images
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerShell Folders - My Pictures - 'SERVER'Scripts$Images
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerUser Shell Folders - My Pictures - 'SERVER'Scripts$Images
