Windows 10: Personalize desktop background help? Making a slideshow from specific files?

Since Win7 is EOL, I reluctantly migrated to 10 a month ago. I remember there being more features in the "Personalize" desktop right-click menu. For example, you could select exactly which images you want for your slideshow, and in Win 10 I can only choose the folder. Is there any way to get that feature to work on Win 10?
