Wallpaper deployed through Windows domain GPO is not working

Windows wallpaper becomes black, we are using windows domain group policy to deploy it and it is added the shared file location in User Configuration- Administrative Templates - Desktop- Desktop -Desktop wallpaper. Also enabled the option in User Configuration- Administrative Templates - Desktop- Desktop -Enable Active Desktop.
It is happening with few systems and started suddenly, we tried gpupdate /force, logoff & logon, restarted, but still, the desktop wallpaper is showing black screen.

Can anyone help to find a permanent solution to solve this?

REM Set Wallpaper
TakeOwn.exe /F %SystemRoot%\Web\Wallpaper\Windows\img0.jpg
icacls %SystemRoot%\Web\Wallpaper\Windows\img0.jpg /reset
copy "%~dp0guidingprinciples.jpg" %SYSTEMROOT%\web\wallpaper\Windows\img0.jpg /Y
ren "%SYSTEMROOT%\web\4k\wallpaper\Windows" "Windows 10"

Open in new window


we took down default wallpaper and place our custom images
It could just be a folder permission issue. Check the folder and share permissions on that shared folder where the background graphic is stored.
