This dosent work on windows 10 pro, instead you need to use a powerhsell script. For some reason microsoft decide that this will only work on Enterprise and Edu editions. :/

If you wanted to update your lock screen in the future, would you place a new image in the same location with the same name or would you place an image with a different file name there and update your Locked screen picture URL with the new name?
