Windows 10: How can I fix the issue that I can't change my wallpaper to slideshow?

It's like every time when I try to change the mode of the wallpaper to slideshow it simultaneously switches back to picture mode, what can I do to this? It didn't warn anything, just sudden switch, automatically.

Bug using slideshow as background wallpaper

I've configured my windows to use slideshow as wallpaper and set the window theme based on color of the background picture. Using windows explorer, when the wallpaper changes if you are navigating through a list of itens then windoes selects the first
item from that list. Its annoying.

Hello,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

Sorry for the Inconvenience caused.

Are you referring to Desktop Wallpaper or Lock screen Wallpaper?

If you are referring to Lock screen wallpaper, you may follow the below steps and check.

1. In the search option of the taskbar type “Lock screen settings” without quotes and press enter.

2. In the Right pane, Select Slideshow from the dropdown list of the Background section.

3. Now browse to the location where you have stored the Photos and which needs to be displayed.

Note: Please remove all other folders from the “Choose albums for your slideshow” section, only the folder which you selected for slideshow should be listed.


Hope the information helps. Do reply if you need further assistance.

Thank you.
