    Restore "Next Desktop Background" context menu option


    Hello,I recently upgraded to Windows 10. I read that in Windows 8 and Windows 10, the option should appear fromDesktop > Right Click empty space to open context menu > "Next desktop background"However it doesn't appear. Is the option available? --Additionally, on Windows 8 I used to be able to enter screen saver options fromDesktop > personalize > Screen SaverHowever the option has disappeared, and "personalize" takes me to the settings app.I recently uninstalled MapMaker SunClock 6, a third-party app, and wonder if that interfered with the above two original personalization s

    CCC Context menu

    I was recently greeted to a new entry in my desktop context menu after installing 8.12 drivers with the Catalyst Control Center:


    Restore "Next Desktop Background" context menu option ati2.png


    I have no idea what the second entry does, since clicking it results in nothing happening.
    So I open up CCC and find this new section:


    Restore "Next Desktop Background" context menu option ati1.png


    It's completely disabled. I only have a single HD3850. The IGP on my mobo is nVidia, which is disabled anyway.

    I spent the last hour or so finding a way to remove the second entry, and this is the only thing I could find:
    Deleting this key removes both entries from the context menu
    Code: KEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\ACE[/quote] This solved one problem and caused another. I do not like the tray icon, so I have it disabled, so the only way I know to get into CCC is via the context menu. Does anyone know of a way to disable just the "Configure Additive Graphics" entry and keep the CCC entry?

    If I kept both disabled, is there some sort of shortcut I could make to get there instead? I don't want to have to go to Display->Settings->Advanced->CCC every time.
    EDIT: Just made a hotkey to get there. *Smile Restore "Next Desktop Background" context menu option :)

    If I set the desktop background to Slideshow I have 'next desktop background' in the context menu when I right-click on the desktop, if I set it to anything else I don't. That context menu item is only relevant if you have a Slideshow.
