Windows 10: Screen saver over dual monitors in Windows 10

I am using a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Yoga (1st Gen) as my second screen (and the laptop driving both monitors), and a ViewSonic VA2248m-LED 22IN monitor as my primary monitor. I would be interested in having the Windows screen saver display my chosen photo album (folder) across both monitors. (I have set the photo album reference correctly).


Currently the screen saver is only being display on the ViewSonic, which is the primary monitor. How do I get it to display on both? Thank you.

screen saver on dual monitors

this question was asked in January and has not been answered:windows 10 programs and apps work fine, my problem is the screen saver mode. I have dual monitor images but when the screen saver starts it only shows on the main monitor not
the second one. How do I stretch the image to both screens. again the background mode is fine but not in screen saver mode.

to clarify:

-windows 10 installed

-two monitors

-screen saver (own photo gallery) only shows on one monitor

-second monitor is black

I'm using a screensaver that worked fine - it even showed different photos on each screen from the same photo folder - until windows update in the last few weeks.

the question is:

How to get a screensaver to show on BOTH monitors, not just one, on windows 10.
