Изменение обоев рабочего стола с помощью кода in.NET

баз этот полезный ответ!--3-->, Я тоже сделал приложения установить соответствующее разрешение экрана.

но параметры реестра были неверны. Вот правильные значения (проверено на Win 7, Win 8.1, Win 10).

if (style == Style.Fill)
{
    key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", 10.ToString());
    key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", 0.ToString());
}
if (style == Style.Fit)
{
    key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", 6.ToString());
    key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", 0.ToString());
}
if (style == Style.Span) // Windows 8 or newer only!
{
    key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", 22.ToString());
    key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", 0.ToString());
}
if (style == Style.Stretch)
{
    key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", 2.ToString());
    key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", 0.ToString());
}
if (style == Style.Tile)
{
    key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", 0.ToString());
    key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", 1.ToString());
}
if (style == Style.Center)
{
    key.SetValue(@"WallpaperStyle", 0.ToString());
    key.SetValue(@"TileWallpaper", 0.ToString());
}

Также обратите внимание, что вы должны использовать:

using Microsoft.Win32;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Drawing;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Media.Imaging;

наконец, щелкните правой кнопкой мыши на своем проекте, добавьте ссылку и (в сборках и фреймворках) добавьте ядро презентации, System.Xaml и WindowsBase.

затем щелкните правой кнопкой мыши на вашем проекте и перейдите в свойства и убедитесь, что целевая платформа-это .Net Framework 4.5. Если вы измените это, вам может потребоваться перезапустить Visual Studio.
