Windows 7 no longer supports animated desktop wallpaper, but we have found a solution to make them work on your system anyway.

Installing Windows 7 DreamScene

After downloading the file, run it with admin privileges. To do that you would have to right-click and select “Run As Administrator”.

The file will copy DreamScene.dll to  your Windows\System32 folder, DreamScene.dll.mui to Windows\System32\en-US folder and it will also add the  registry keys and values that are needed in order to run DreamScene on Windows 7.

Right-click on a Windows 7 Dream and “Set as desktop background”:
