I am not allowed to change my wallpaper.
This came from your security team? I usually see it from HR / management selling it as a branding issue or "professional" thing.
Even worse here - we cant change the screensaver or screen lockout timeout settings!
I have a workaround by running a little looping script that keep the screen active. Its not that I particularly object to the screensaver, but once it activates I have to Ctrl Alt Delete 3-4 times and enter my password to get my desktop open again. Also it is an active screensaver that sometimes mucks up my desktop layout (I have a multiple monitor setup)
That is so annoying.. when I'm working from home I just start a meeting with myself in Teams to keep the pc from autolocking.
That's actually genius. Here's me writing a script to just move the mouse randomly lol, starting a Teams meeting would've been way simpler
