    Hw to reduce the default background time to 30 seconds instead of 1 minute?

    *Original Title: default background time change

    I'd like to know how to reduce the default background time to 30 seconds instead of 1 minute.

    even if it's a registry string code.

    win 8.1 had a default time selection down to 10 seconds.

    Background for Windows 10

    Hi Ronald,

    To address this concern, we suggest that you follow these steps on how to change back the background time to 10 seconds:

    • Press Windows key+R to open the Run window.
    • Type this command: control /name Microsoft.Personalization /page pageWallpaper to open old Control Panel settings, and then click
      OK.
    • Select your preferred desktop background and under "Change picture every" option, choose
      10 seconds.
    • Click Save changes.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    As per the description, I understand that you would like to reduce the default background time to 30 seconds.

    I would like to inform you that the minimum time is 1 minute by default we cannot change or reduce it to 30 seconds by any sort of trick.



    However you may also provide us the feedback using the Feedback app.



    Hope this information helps. Please let us know if you need any other assistance with Windows in future. We will be happy to assist you.
