    I am trying to get different wallpapers on both of my monitors however when i right click the images in settings 3 options come up, one saying set for all monitors, and the other two say set for monitor 2, there is no set for monitor 1 option in the list.

    Dual Monitor Setup - Windows 10 randomly changes wallpaper order

    Hello all

    I have a dual monitor setup running Windows 10 where my primary screen i horizontal and my secondary screen is oriented vertically.

    I used the method of selecting two images (CTRL + left mouse click), right clicked the secondly selected image (vertical wallpaper) and chose "set as desktop background" in the context menu, to set my desktop backgrounds (wallpapers), which sets the wallpapers
    correctly... but after an arbitrary amount of time parses the wallpaper changes - either switching the wallpapers around or setting the wallpaper of the primary monitor as the wallpaper of both monitors.

    PS.: The cycling of wallpapers is turned off.
