  2. unable to change the lock screen Wallpaper.

    Hi,

    I appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down to the issue.


    • What is the exact issue that you are facing?

    • Are you facing issues while trying to change the lock screen Wallpaper?

    • Are you not able to choose the directory where the wallpapers has been saved?
    As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to restart the computer and check if you are able to successfully change the lock screen wallpaper.


    • From Desktop, right click and select
      Personalize
      .

    • In Personalization window, click on
      Lock Screen
      in the left pane.

    • And choose wallpaper you would like to apply for the lock screen by choosing the browse option.

    • Close the Personalization window.

  3. 5530 Wallpaper Issue

    While using phones theme and trying to set a new wallpaper from memory card I get this strange problem. The wallpaper gets set but at the top, above the contacts bar, there's a transparent thick line showing the previous wallpaper. Tried everything, can't
    get it to work... Any suggestions?

    Strange Firefox glitch (in XP only?) with wallpaper

    Hey All,

    So i was using a compy in the lab today, and of course since the school is cheap they are still running XP and the ugly fisher price UI.

    Anyway, if you notice in this screenshot, there seems to be a tearing of the window, in this case, firefox, where the wallpaper seeps through.

    I want to think this is just a bad buildup of resource management, but, I'm curious if anyone else has seen this.

    Not a major issue, just humorous. *Nutkick :nutkick:

    Thanks for any strange suggestions, or oddly, a solution??? Eh, its silly whichever.
