Windows 10: Why cant i change my back ground picture it always remains black

I have reinstalled a fresh copy of windows that did not help

changing back ground pictures

how to stop desktop back ground from changing picture

 

changing back ground pictures

A couple of suggestions on this one:

• Open the Settings App (gear icon on your Star Menu)
• Go to Personalisation
• Click Background and set the background drop down to Picture
• Click Lockscreen and set the background drop down to Picture

If you have already set both of these settings and your desktop background still changes to a particular image, then in the settings app, go to Accounts - Sync your settings and uncheck the option to sync your theme

 

Quick Access not searching Pictures folder

Summary, that last suggestion didn't work.

• I moved the pictures to another folder temporarily.

• Then I tried to remove the Pictures folder with option one at Add or Remove Folders from This PC in Windows 10 | Windows 10 Tutorials. Even after rebooting, the Pictures folder remained.
• So I tried using option two. Same thing: reboot >> Pictures folder still there.

• Since there were no troubleshooting steps for this scenario, just for the heck of it, I ran through the restore steps. Copied some pictures into the Pictures folder, ran a Quick Access search and initial problem remains: Searching all of QA doesn't find any files in Pictures folder, running search on just the Pictures folder does. I want to run a global search and find matching files in any/all of the Documents, Music, Videos, and Pictures folders.

That article dates from 2015 and I'm guessing is out of date. I hope it didn't create potential future problems in my registry.

Bottom line: I'm still looking for a fix.
