Windows Background Image Changer

I created this to cycle through family photos as the Windows desktop background (wallpaper).

This seemed like a feature Windows should provide out of the box, but I found its ability to handle subfolders lacking.

There is probably something in the Windows store that does this, but I took it as a chance to experiment with registry manipulation in Go.

Config

See the background-image-changer.config.json file.
