    Hi,

    I applied one Desktop wallpaper policy through Group Policy. But the policies is applied in some machine only. After i checked rsop.msc to find policy is applied correctly or not, Policy is Applied Correctly and I did gpupdate /force after that also not working. After i try to take My Domain Sharing Folder (Which is created for Wallpaper) not coming It is saying "Network Path was not Found" 

    I tried to restart the Workstation Services. Restarted Perfectly.

    I think because of this only policy not getting Applied. Can you please help on this.

    May thanks in advance.
