This policy setting allows an administrator to standardize the account pictures for all users on a system to the default account picture. One application for this policy setting is to standardize the account pictures to a company logo.

Note

The default account picture is stored at %PROGRAMDATA%\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\user.jpg. The default guest picture is stored at %PROGRAMDATA%\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\guest.jpg. If the default pictures don't exist, an empty frame is displayed.

  • If you enable this policy setting, the default user account picture will display for all users on the system with no customization allowed.

  • If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, users will be able to customize their account pictures.
