Lock Desktop Picture Configuration Broken MacOS 15.5

Is anyone else experiencing issues with the "Lock Desktop Picture" configuration with MacOS 15? I recently updated our fleet from 14 to 15.5 and it seems to have broken our branded desktop picture. Not only has it reset the wallpaper to the default, but it has also broken the functionality setting. I am also open to just making a policy that sets and locks the desktop if that is a better process.

The filepath in the screenshot is not valid. You are missing the "/" before Users. 

 

I have seen the desktop wallpaper configuration completely corrupt before requiring me to make a new configuration profile and delete the old one.

Sometimes the easiest solution is staring you right in the face. Thanks for the eyes! Not sure how the forward slash got deleted... but everything seems to be in working order now.

We have all been there my friend, sometimes all you need is a second set of eyes. :)

 

Cheers.
