How to Remove Watermark (Build Number Info) from Desktop in Windows 8 Consumer Preview (Public Beta)?

1. First apply your desired image as Desktop wallpaper or leave it to default Windows 8 wallpaper if you like.
2. Now copy following text:
%appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Themes
3. Press "Win+R" keys together to open RUN dialog box and paste the above text and press Enter.
4. It'll open Themes folder in Windows Explorer where you'll find a folder "CachedFiles" and an image file "TranscodedWallpaper.jpg".




Here, "TranscodedWallpaper.jpg" file contains the wallpaper image which you set on your Desktop and "CachedFiles" folder contains a cached image file which is used by Windows to show wallpaper on Desktop. Its basically a copy of "TranscodedWallpaper.jpg" file + watermark on it.
5. Now click on "TranscodedWallpaper.jpg" file and press "Ctrl+C" keys. It'll copy the file. Now press "Ctrl+V" keys to make a copy of the image file in same folder. You can also do the task using right-click menu.
 
6. Now open "CachedFiles" folder and you'll see an image file with the name "CachedImage_xxx.jpg". That's the actual image file which is showing your Desktop wallpaper. Windows automatically creates it whenever you change your Desktop wallpaper.
7. Now click on the image file and press "F2" key or right-click on the file and select Rename option. Now copy its name.

8. Go back to previous folder and rename new "TranscodedWallpaper - Copy.jpg" file and paste the copied text string.
It'll set the new image file name to same as the name of image file present in CachedFiles folder.

9. Now cut this new image file from "Themes" folder and paste it into "CachedFiles" folder.
Windows will ask for confirmation, click on "Replace the file in the destination folder" option.

 10. That's it. Close the folder and refresh your Desktop and the watermark will be gone.
