    Window 10 - Adding Custom Wallpaper


    Friends,


    I added a very nice custom wallpaper graphic to my new Win 10 laptop and the display looked stunning.


    Then I accidentally hit some combination of keystrokes (which keystrokes - I am not sure) and the new wallpaper image was deleted.


    I have uploaded the identical image (jpg or png) wallpaper 2-3 times. The file loads easily, however, the very same stunning image mentioned above now 'renders' in a very blurry-fuzzy display.


    Any guidance on how to restore this wallpaper to its original stunningly crisp, sharp, clear display are most appreciated.


    Thank you, Lawrence Wilson

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Wallpaper setup in Windows 10

    Hello everyone,

    laugh all you want, but I have an issue with Windows 10 and setting up wallpapers. Right click-> background doesn't help. I want the old school screen I have seen in Windows 8. I want to set up a dual monitor wallpaper. This command used to take me to the right place :

    control /name Microsoft.Personalization /page pageWallpaper , but now it doesn't. What could be the problem here ?

    The wallpaper page is no longer available from Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Personlization > Desktop background like in Windows 8. Why did they change this is beyond my understanding. Anyone with an idea is more than welcomed.

    Windows version is : 1703 ( OS build 15063.483 )
    Windows edition: Home
    Activation status: Digital license linked to my MS Account

    Window 10 - Adding Custom Wallpaper

    wallpaper

    Hi Lynn,

    Depending on what version of Windows 10 you’re running, you should see a “choose a fit” option - Try this - right click and go to personalize. Then Background, it should be there.

    Also, there is an article below I found for custom fitting images for your lock screen, this should also help for Wallpaper as well.

    https://www.techrepublic.com/article/custom-fit... - This is a 3rd party site, so please steer clear of ads. But this
    is a great step by step guide on how to accomplish this using the Photos app.

    Let me know if this helps!
