    My wallpaper is being changed on its own with nobody elses input


    I am currently having the same issue as this person

    As one of the people in the replies mentioned, I did have my sync settings on but I've never signed into another pc

    My question is a little bit different however, how do I see where the source of this is from? If I could pin point where this is from that would be great

    Although suggestions to remove it all together would help greatly too

    The pictures they changed it to are the 3 on the right

  3. Win-10 themes keep changing

    Hi,

    Thank you for providing the information.

    • Did you try the steps suggested by Suvarna Govinda above, what was the result?
    As I understand the issue, Themes in Windows doesn't have the options to change on its own. Only the Wallpapers in the themes can change as selected ( Picture, Solid color and Slide Show ).

    I would suggest you to make us understand that if the Wallpapers are changing in Theme which you have selected.

    Below are the steps you can check if it helps.

    • Press Windows + I keys and select Personalization.
    • Select Theme and select the Default theme.
    • Select the Desktop Background below and select the Picture
      and save it and check.
    Please post us back if the issue resolves. We are glad to help you.
