You will find the program code. Open encryption menu.au3, and see what you can do to help me compile that code with the image in the background folder set as the background for the tabs. I don't want the program to need the background folder with the image. I would rather the picture be part of the compiled code.

Thanks for replying. I tried using _ResourceSetImageToCtrl, but when I ran the script the background was solid gray. I tried a different image and got the same result. Here is the script.

I also tried ResourcesEx.au3. It did not work for me either.

I compiled the test scripts from resources.au3, and resourcesex.au3. I noticed that some of the images were not being displayed.

I figured it out. I just had to do this : 

$Image = _Resource_GetAsImage("Image_1")
_Resource_SetImageToCtrlID($pic, $Image)

      Background image change for Windows 7
      By RBrown1375
      I was wondering if there was a way in AutoIT to install a standard windows background for windows 7. The script below works fine for XP SP3 but fails on Windows 7 and I think it needs Admin Perms but I'm not sure. Please let me know if its possible.

      Cheers!



      if not exist "C:\Windows\System32\oobe\Info" mkdir "C:\Windows\System32\oobe\Info" if not exist "C:\Windows\System32\oobe\Info\backgrounds" mkdir "C:\Windows\System32\oobe\Info\backgrounds" copy "\\mitfile\userdata\everyone\bg\backgroundDefault.jpg" "C:\Windows\System32\oobe\Info\backgrounds" REG ADD "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop" /V Wallpaper /T REG_SZ /F /D "C:\Windows\System32\oobe\Info\backgrounds\backgroundDefault.jpg" REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\Background" /V OEMBackground /T REG_DWORD /F /D 1
