I use all three monitors on the daily.I used to be able to have a different picture displayed on each monitor. But now all of a sudden when I select a picture for a specific monitor it will set it for all three. I have restarted my laptop, checked for update, reseated all the cables.

  3. How can I change the background image individually to 6 monitors in Windows 10.

    Hi,

    The option to customize desktop background for multiple display on Windows 10 is hidden on the modern interface of the display settings. To open the old interface to customize your desktop background, follow these steps:

    • Press Windows + R key to open the run command window.
    • Type or copy and paste the command below to open the old Desktop Background
      interface window:

      control /name Microsoft.Personalization /page pageWallpaper
    • Under the Choose your desktop background option, right-click on the image that you wish to set on the desired monitor.
    • Select the Set for monitor 1 to set it on your 1st display.
    • Repeat the steps to set your background for other monitors.

    Let us know should you need further assistance.
