Windows 10: How to change the desktop background.

I have Windows 10 and Microsoft Edge. When I turn on my laptop my screen is a full scenic photo that asks if I like it or not. Then I sign in and my regular screen comes up with my chosen photo for that. How do I get a permanent scene on the screen upon opening and turning on?


Thank you, SenecaGal52
