Wallpaper change in windows 10

Question

This code works in windows 7, but does not work in the windows 10. Instead of changing the wallpaper just black screen

[DllImport("User32", CharSet = CharSet.Auto)]
    public static extern int SystemParametersInfo(int uiAction, int uiParam,
        string pvParam, uint fWinIni);
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        SystemParametersInfo(0x0014, 0, "Image.jpg", 0x0001);
    }

use full path to image. does this work? – magicandre1981 Jul 24 '16 at 05:55 — magicandre1981, Jul 24 '16 at 05:55

Instead of only passing Image.jpg, use the full path:

SystemParametersInfo(0x0014, 0, "C:\\Image.jpg", 0x0001);
