    My wallpaper changed, and I didn't change it myself! [​IMG]Hello, so my desktop wallpaper changed into that. I mean if its not a hacker i dont know what could it be. I found the picture on my pc downloaded yesterday at 10;30 PM, so I double check if maybe I actually downloaded it and put it as my wallpaper. But I couldnt find it downloaded on any browser. Please, how can I be safe? and i am serioulsy not joking, but it is quite funny that the picture changed into that. but still, i'm a bit scared, could i get some help?

    :)

    unable to change the lock screen Wallpaper.

    Hi,

    I appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down to the issue.


    • What is the exact issue that you are facing?

    • Are you facing issues while trying to change the lock screen Wallpaper?

    • Are you not able to choose the directory where the wallpapers has been saved?
    As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to restart the computer and check if you are able to successfully change the lock screen wallpaper.


    • From Desktop, right click and select
      Personalize      .

    • In Personalization window, click on
      Lock Screen       in the left pane.

    • And choose wallpaper you would like to apply for the lock screen by choosing the browse option.

    • Close the Personalization window.
    If the issue still persists, please do reply with the required information. We will be glad to assist you.

    Thank you.

    My wallpaper changed, and I didn't change it myself!

    Can't change Wallpaper for some Reason? Win7 7100

    Not sure what happened but I cannot change the wallpaper. I can change the background color, the desktop theme, etc etc..

    I just can't change the background to any of the pictures wallpaper. Not even the default "fighting fish" wallpaper works.

    I can change the background color and the theme.

    Any ideas?
