  1. Windows Explorer keeps failing, wallpaper consistently goes all black


    Just started happening a couple of days ago. Any time I maximize any tab, my wallpaper goes all black and stays like that for a while until it reverts back to normal or if I restart task for Windows Explorer in Task Manager.Any idea what could be going wrong? Restarting the task is just a temporary actually very short solution as it goes all black again seconds after the task has been restarted.

    :)

  2. Windows Wallpaper Keeps Going Black

    Whenever I start up my desktop my wallpaper immediately goes black, I have researched many solutions and none of them seem to work. The only thing that I have found to help was to restart Windows Explorer in task manager but that only temporarily fixes it.

    Hi,

    To isolate your concern, we would like to ask a few questions:

    • Are there any external devices plugged into your laptop?

  4. Windows Explorer keeps failing, wallpaper consistently goes all black

    Wallpaper goes black but also has black boxes when dragging with cursor windows 11

    Hello,

    For some reason my wallpaper keeps going black randomly and every time I drag with the mouse on the wallpaper it will tear the wallpaper and show black where I dragged. If I leave the black bits for a while eventually the screen will just go completely black. This only started happening when I upgraded to windows 11.

    I've looked up countless solutions with no luck and It seems no one else is having the exact problem I'm having.

    Please help.
