Windows 10: How do I have different settings for different desktops background?

I'm trying to change the background of my 2 desktops in the same laptop. In one desktop I want the background to fit the screen and in other I want it in the middle. So if I change the setting of one desktop to centre, it changes both the desktops backgrounds to centre or if I change the setting of one desktop to fit the screen, it changes for the other desktop background too. Is it not possible to have different settings for different desktops background?

Multiple Desktops - Can't set a different desktop background image uniquely for each Desktop

Hi

Thanks for your reply.

If you're using a business computer, it's possible that there are policies in place that prevent you from setting different backgrounds for each virtual desktop. These policies are often managed by the IT department to ensure security and uniformity across all business machines.

Here are some steps you can take:

1. Contact Your IT Department:
   
   • Explain the issue to your IT department and ask if there are any policies or restrictions that might be preventing you from setting different backgrounds for each desktop.
     
   • They might be able to adjust the settings or provide a workaround specific to your organization's setup.
     
2. Check Group Policies:
   
   • If you have administrative privileges, you can check the Group Policy settings to see if there are any restrictions related to desktop backgrounds.
     
   • Open the Group Policy Editor by typing gpedit.msc in the Run dialog (Windows + R).
     
   • Navigate to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Desktop > Desktop and check for any policies related to background settings.
     

If these steps don't resolve the issue, your IT department will be the best resource for further assistance, as they can directly access and modify the settings on your business computer.

 

different Desktop wallpaper backgrounds

Hi guys,

So I found out you can set up different desktops on my laptop.

I have 3, (one for school, one for other productivity stuff and one for fun/entertainment)

Can I set up 3 different wallpapers for each desktop background?

I tried using settings and "change my desktop background" but that changes all 3 instead of just the one I'm currently on.

Any suggestions?

Thank You

 

Unable to set different backgrounds for different desktop screens

Hello,

I would like to set different backgrounds for my various desktop screens so that I will be able to recognise the tabs easier. I have tried the instructions given to change the background via right-click > choose background on the different desktop tabs. However, it still changes all my desktop tabs to have the same background. Is there a way I could fix this issue?
