    Window 10 Background Personalisation

    I have a third party app that updates my background every 25 minuets. That means I cannot use the slideshow setting in personalisation.

    How can I change the default choose a fit setting so that my image is the perfect fit every time it updates? The default choose a fit setting is fill.

    I have found some sources suggesting changing it in the
    edit group policy settings but this doesnt appear to be a feature on windows 10.

    Thank you.

    Personalisation of Background

    Background Personalisation

    I have created my own Slideshow for Background in the Personalisation options.

    Change Picture Every 1 minute is the fastest option available.

    The frequency of change on Windows 8.1 could be set to 10 or 20 seconds.

    How can I increase the Change Picture speed please?

    I am using two monitors.
