Hiding wallpaper when locking the desktop

[Guest]

Is there a way to hide the desktop wallpaper & replace it with a blank
desktop when locking the computer? I used the CTRL+ALT+DEL method and
selecting "Lock Computer" but the wallpaper is still showing at the
background.

I tried looking for an option, but the only option I could find was using
the Welcome screen. Which means basically disabling the CTRL+ALT+DEL locking
method and I fear that it's not really a secure way to lock the computer.

Anyone have any suggestions?

The welcome screen logs on just like typing in a logon box. The only difference is the welcome screen tries to logon with a blank password first to see if you have a password or not (these things don't know what the password is).

Just to clear any confusion:

Whenever I lock the computer (using the Control+Alt+Delete method and
pressing the "Lock Computer" button), my wallpaper is still showing. Is there
a way to hide the wallpaper from the lock screen?

Continue to use the Welcome Screen but instead of using the CTRL + ALT + DEL
method just hit WinKey + L on your keyboard.

You could get your desired results if you are willing to change your desktop
to a blank background. Of course that means changing your current desktop
wallpaper. It just comes down to which you prefer.
