Windows 10: Multiple wallpapers not working

How do I fix this ? Everything works fine with my 4 monitors, but when I want to select different wallpaper, I get all screens or screen 4, the wallpaper shows on all 4 screens whatever I pick.

Wallpaper with multiple monitors

Hi Bandalo,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community. We appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

I understand that you are unable to select different wallpaper for each display in Extend display mode.

There might be some issues with system files or viruses, which is not allowing you to select different wallpapers

Please perform some of the below troubleshooting steps and check if it helps:

Method 1: Update/Install the Display Adapter driver.

If the issue still persists, I suggest you to install/update the Display Adapter driver.

Steps to install the drivers for the Display Adapter.

• Press Windows + R keys from the keyboard to open Run command.
• In Run window type devmgmt.msc.
• Then in device manager right click on Display Adapter.
• Try to update the drivers from the option stating automatically update the drivers.
• If it works fine otherwise try to search for the drivers with the help of model number of your computer from the Manufacturer’s website.

Method 2: Please try to run SFC Scan on your computer to check all system files are working fine or not.

In order to run System File Checker (SFC) you can follow the steps provided in the following link:

(Applies to Windows 10 as well)

After completion of this scan please restart computer and then check the status of your computer.

Hope it helps. Kindly update the status of the issue, we will be happy to help you.

 

Multiple wallpapers randomly stop working

Sangeeta-

Thank you for your reply. There are other wallpapers in that same folder.

The laptop is less than two months old, and the chipset drivers are up to date according to the manufacturers website.

Also, another suggestion was that I might have some file system corruption. I ran SFC and DISM and both came back clean. What is the next step?

Thank you.
