Windows 10: Creators Update - Cannot set different wallpaper per monitor

Hi all

I just updated to the Creators Edition and my link to the classic wallpaper chooser (that I got from this site) is now opening up the default personalisation screen. Meaning that I no longer have the ability to set a different background per monitor.

I was previously using a shortcut to C:\Windows\System32\control.exe /name Microsoft.Personalization /page pageWallpaper

Is there any workaround, beyond having to stitch images together, to get this to work?

Many thanks

:)

 

Multiple Wallpapers on Windows 10

This allows me to access and set wallpapers but not for individual monitors. I still cannot set different backgrounds for each of my monitors.

 

Where to get Windows desktop images - like the ones shown on login.

If you meant different virtual desktops, then it's not possible to assign different wallpaper for each virtual desktop.

For multiple-monitors, you can. See

Ignore me - I am so used to using the Wallpaper chooser workaround, I didn't notice that you can right click an image from the new personalisation area and set the monitor

/facepalm

 

Thanks for that info, i was looking for a way to do that myself !!*Thumbs

 

I am still having issues, I have 8 monitors, seem you can only cycle between 5 images, then you have to browse to another and that resets the entire process.

 

You are in luck, my dear friend.

Right clicking images from the personlization area did not automatically work for me, and the previous work around that I was using was also not working. However, I have discovered this one:
hitting the Windows+R keys, then typing in (or copy/paste)
