Windows 10: Bing Wallpaper App not Installing

The Bing Wallpaper App was only refreshing the image every 2 days, so I uninstalled the App using Start, restarted my laptop and then went to download and install the App again. The App downloads, but the BingWallpaper.exe does nothing when clicked. Can someone help me with that please? Thanks

:)

Cannot install Bing Wallpaper

Hi

Thanks for your reply.

You can try to uninstall the app and install a new app. To do so, follow the steps below:

1. Right-click on Start and select Windows Powershell (admin).

2. Type appwiz.cpl in the text field and press Enter.

3. On the Programs and Features page, find the Bing Wallpaper app.

4. Right-click on the app, select the Uninstall, and then follow the instructions.

5. After deleting the app, go to the Official website of Bing Wallpaper.

6. Click on the Install Now and then double-click BingWallpaper.exe.

If the Bing Wallpaper app is still not working, It may also be related to the damage of components in your store. You can try the following to repair your store.

1: Reset Store Cache



Try resetting the Store and see if that helps.

1. Press Windows key + R. This will open Run. Alternatively, you can go to Start and search for 'Run'.
   
2. In Run dialog box, type 'wsreset.exe' and hit Enter.
   

Note: A blank Command Prompt window will open, and after about ten seconds, the window will close and Microsoft Store will open automatically.



2: Re-register Microsoft Store



Re-register Microsoft Store using PowerShell and see if that helps.

1. Press Windows + X keys together and click on Windows PowerShell (Admin).
   
2. Now type in the command and hit Enter: Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
   
3. Restart the PC.
   

Then try the installation again.

Bing wallpaper error


I clicked on what I thought was Windows wallpaper but it was Bing, I don't know how it got in there. Then it took over my wallpaper and put on Bing wallpaper, changing pictures often. I did not know how to stop it so I deleted the wallpaper. Now when I leave the office and come back there is a black screen with a message saying it can't find the wallpaper. I can just touch the keyboard and my wallpaper shows up. Any suggestions as to how to stop the error message? I have W 7.

I found instructions for unchecking something in Bing Desktop, but I don't have that.
