    Desktop wallpaper turns black while dragging cursor on the desktop [WIN 10]


    Hi.


    I have some problems with my desktop wallpaper. It turns black in any area that my desktop get's updated. For instance when i drag with my mouse to mark several icons on the desktop the area behind the blue marker-area tuns black but not the rest. Or When i right click and press "update desktop" the whole wallpaper disappears and turns black. Everything works just fine otherwise. (I have a real key for Windows 10 activation).

    My rtx 2080 cards drivers are up to date and I have reinstalled them two times.

    sfc /scannow tells me nothing is broken.


    Plz help.

    :)

  2. Desktop wallpaper for new users

    Hi Alaa,

    Setting default users lets you specify the wallpaper on user's desktops and prevents other users from changing the image or its presentation. You can check these steps on how to set wallpapers from all users:

    • Type run on the search bar and press Enter.
    • On the window, type gpedit.msc and click OK.
    • Locate and click Administrative Templates.
    • Select Desktop > Desktop > Desktop Wallpaper.
    • Tick Enabled, and name your wallpaper.
    • Select Apply and click OK.

    After performing the steps above, you may restart your PC.

    Let us know the outcome. We will be glad to assist you.

    Windows 10 desktop turned black suddenly.

    I am using HP 15-au114tx laptop. It has Windows 10 on it. All has been working totally fine when I desired to change the wallpaper today after a long time. But nothing happened but the desktop turned black. Only wallpaper
    I can have now is the one I was having or the first theme from the custom theme installed. Otherwise the desktop turns black. Looking forward to a solution. Thank You.

    Dragging apps to desktop for shortcuys

    Hi Lance,

    It's possible that some settings are preventing you from adding shortcuts to the desktop. We'd like to learn more about your concern so that we could provide the proper resolution. We just have a few questions for you:

    • Which build version of Windows 10 is on your computer? To check, click
      Start
      , type winver, and press Enter. For example, 14393.1066.
    • Does this happen when you try dragging all apps to the desktop, or just a specific app?
    • Are you using an administrator account?
    • Is your computer connected to a private domain?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    As an initial recommendation, we suggest following these steps as a workaround:

    • Right-click on any empty part of the desktop.
    • Click New > Shortcut.
    • Navigate to the folder location of the app you want and select it.
    • Click OK.

    We look forward to your response and the result of the initial troubleshooting.
