Windows 10: Short lag on wallpaper changes W10 2004

After the newest update 2004 an old problem came back. Whenever my wallpaper is changing I get a short lag or freeze, but only to the screen not to the sound. This is especially noticeable when watching a movie.


I had a similar problem with 1809 but back then it was the automated color select, that caused the freeze, but this time it is off and it's only the wallpaper change.


It doesnt matter how many wallpapers are available or if it's ramdom or not.

And also the size of the wallpapers doesn't matter.

I have 4 connected displays, 3x1440p and a 1080 projector. But it didn't change when I only used one.

GPU is a 1080ti with newest drivers, still waiting for a 3080ti upgrade.

MB/Chipsetdrivers are new; X399 AORUS Gaming 7

CPU; TR1950X

128GB of RAM and Windows is running from a Intel 900p.

Wallpapers are on another drive: Gigabyte M.2 NVMe PCIe 3.0 SSD 1 TB




If someone else is having problems like this please report, also if you got a fix.

My solution so far is, set the change time to 10min, so it's not this annoying....


I will report back if a new GPU solves this issue.

W10 Wallpaper slide-show now not accessing subfolders - but it used to.

Until the recent W10 update (late January 2019), my desktop wallpaper would pick pictures at random for a slide-show from my Pictures folder,
and its subfolders. Now it will not access subfolders as it previously did.

Is this an intentional change to W10 (which I know used not to access subfolders), or has there been a mistaken retrograde step?
