Kali Linux lock screen wallpaper/background changed after update

I am using Kali Linux on vmware workstation. I had a older version so I updated it using apt (command line) after updating it my lock screen wallpaper/background changed automatically.

To verify if such thing is not caused by my mistake. I again created another blank vm with exact configuration & after update wallpaper changed again.

Earlier it was (older & desired):

Newer one is different from older (I cannot embed another image as I am new to forums)

how can I get back my older lockscreen/login screen background/wallpaper?

Few options there (see top reply):

Option 2 - GUI

  1. Click Menu > Settings > LightDM GTK+ Greeter settings
  2. Authenticate if necessary

  4. Click Save

Reboot to take effect.
