    Most of the time its not noticeable, but with some images you can see the compression. Is it possible to make Windows not do whatever it is doing that introduces compression artifacts?

    How to prevent wallpaper compression in Windows 10?

    I'm running Windows 10 October Update and in case i know that Windows 10 reduces my wallpaper quality everytime! Of course this is real!

    I already followed this step:

    1. Open Registry Editor
    2. Go to HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop
    3. Create an DWORD value named JPEGImportQuality.
    4. Set it as decimal and the value to 100

    But my wallpaper quality still gets reduced.
    For example here is an test that i made to ensure that the setting still works.

    The following is the original image made in MSPaint (2MB):

    The next image shows the compressed image by Windows (85kb):

    http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/6816/kniw41nx21x7wzjzg.jpg

    Everytime when I set the wallpaper, it reduces the quality. How can i solve this in the new Windows 10 update?

    AMD FX OC'ers Club

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
