I am using kix32 to install a screen saver and deploying it through MS SMS. My problem is that the screen saver does not end up to be the default screen saver when another user logs into the workstation. help anyone

You need to set it in the registry under HKEY_Users\.Default\Control Panel\Desktop
the Key SCRNSAVE.EXE needs to have the *.scr name of your screen saver.

You could also find the \Control Panel\Desktop under the current user as well as all users of that machine and changed there as well.

But for me I would modify the \.DEFAULT\ user and remove all other users profiles so that they get the default screen saver. I work in an enviroment where all documents are stored on the server not on their desktops.

Good Luck
Don
