Windows 10: Windows 10 stopped showing separate images for wallpaper backgrounds?

Hi,


Windows 10 just started showing the same image on two different monitors? And one of the images isn't made to fill the screen?


Windows 10 was always showing two different images when I had two monitors on. Just this morning it started showing the same image on the two screens and one of them doesn't fill the screen. (I have it set to fill the screen).


Anyone?


Thanks,


John

Download background wallpaper?

Is it still set as background? Then you can go into Settings > Personalization > Background. In there you should be able to find the folder that contains the image file.

If that doesn't work here are some alternate suggestions

http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/find-current-... - call up the old control panel dialog

https://winaero.com/blog/find-your-current-wall... - this page provides a VBS script you can copy and run to open the folder.

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 )
