Snowbooks1419 Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 So, in some ads for Windows 10, Microsoft included a snowy mountain wallpaper. This wallpaper was not included in any of the Windows 10 builds. I've found the wallpaper at this link. However, it says "All rights reserved" as the copyright status. Am I allowed to download that wallpaper to use as a desktop background? Link to image w/ image: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake89 Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 As Zhangm said you're fine. But you can't use the wallpaper for any type of commercial product for sell unless you pay a fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I frequently make videos that I post on YouTube, and these videos are normally screencasts of my computer screen. Many times, my desktop wallpaper appears in the screencast, so it would appear in the YouTube video. However, I don't put ads on my videos, so I don't make any money off of them. Would it still be okay to use the wallpaper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
