Yes, to make sure I add the DWORD RemoveWallpaper to the following registry keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ORL\WinVNC3
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ORL\WinVNC3\Default
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ORL\WinVNC3\{User1} (Currently Logged)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ORL\WinVNC3\{User2}
Also I try with the administrator account (without success).
P.S. After each modification I stop and restart the service "VNC Server".
Thank you
