How to Change the Lockscreen image in windows 10 using python?
To change the lockscreen image in Windows 10 using Python, you can make use of the ctypes
library to call the necessary Windows API functions. Here's an example code snippet that demonstrates how you can achieve this:
pythonimport ctypes
def set_lockscreen_image(image_path):
# Constants for Windows API functions
SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER = 0x0014
SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE = 0x01
SPIF_SENDCHANGE = 0x02
# Set the lockscreen image
ctypes.windll.user32.SystemParametersInfoW(SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER, 0, image_path, SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE | SPIF_SENDCHANGE)
# Provide the path to the image you want to set as the lockscreen wallpaper
image_path = r'C:\path\to\your\image.jpg'
# Call the function to set the lockscreen image
set_lockscreen_image(image_path)
In the code above, we define the set_lockscreen_image()
function that takes the image path as an argument. This function uses ctypes
to call the SystemParametersInfoW
function from user32.dll
, passing the necessary parameters to set the lockscreen image.
Make sure to replace 'C:\path\to\your\image.jpg'
with the actual path to the image file you want to set as the lockscreen wallpaper.
Please note that this code snippet works on Windows systems and specifically for setting the lockscreen image on Windows 10. Additionally, ensure that you have the required permissions to modify the lockscreen image.
