    powershell to set second monitor wallpaper


    I have Windows 10 laptop connected to two monitors in extended display mode. I would like to only set the second monitor wallpaper to a specific image.Manual way of doing this would be to navigate: Desktop right click --> Personalization --> Choose the picture --> Right click and set for monitor 2Is there any way to automate it via a script bat/powershell ?I was able to get below code snippet to work, however it sets the wallpaper to both the displaysfunction Set-Wallpaper$MyWallpaper{$code = @' using System.Runtime.InteropServices; namespace Win32{ public

    :)

    Second monitor wallpaper resets wallpaper on startup

    On startup, my second monitor wallpaper always changes to the wallpaper on my main wallpaper. This happens until I go on rearrange displays and move it slightly and click apply, which then displays the intended wallpaper on the second display. However,
    currently I have to mess around with the display settings every single time i startup the pc, which is proving to be very annoying.
