Wallpaper For Windows decorative films are the easiest do-it-yourself (DIY) solution for decorating, adding privacy to windows and glass doors with the beauty of frosted glass, leaded glass, etched glass and stained glass.
For an even more custom look, all designs can be ordered made-to-size.

It turns out Windows 10's default wallpaper is a photograph of an actual, physical installation by designer Bradley Munkowitz, also known as GMUNK. Munkowitz has a section of his website and a short YouTube video that explain how he and his team used a physical mirror, lasers, and smoke machines to produce the image, taking thousands of exposures with different color filters and combining the best into a single, final composite.

Finding out the Windows 10 desktop was made with practical effects has given me a whole new appreciation for it. Even before the advent of AI-generated imagery, I found that the sheer glut of pictures on the internet and proliferation of CGI have this cheapening effect on images, like I just default to assuming that most imagery is "fake" somehow. I never thought twice about the Windows 10 desktop because I didn't think it was "real." Now I'm kind of in love with the thing.

It's the opposite of my experience of that awful iPad commercial where Apple crushed a lot of perfectly nice musical instruments and art supplies in a hydraulic press. Seeing it in passing or just as still images, I assumed it was CGI or something and didn't see what the big deal was. But no, they actually did stage a real life carnival of needless waste to promote the new iPad.

Ted has been thinking about PC games and bothering anyone who would listen with his thoughts on them ever since he booted up his sister's copy of Neverwinter Nights on the family computer. He is obsessed with all things CRPG and CRPG-adjacent, but has also covered esports, modding, and rare game collecting. When he's not playing or writing about games, you can find Ted lifting weights on his back porch.

I just purchased a second hand HP Elitebook but it looks like it was an ex-lease model and has windows 10 enterprise installed. I can't personalize the PC because enterprise isn't activated (eventually I will downgrade to win10 home or pro). Is there a way to edit the registry so that I can add a custom wallpaper? That's all I want to change.

You can set the wallpaper using the Local Group Policy Editor(gpedit.msc), atUser Configuration > Administrative Templates > Desktop > Desktop,group policy "Desktop Wallpaper". Set the policy to Enabled, enter thefile path and click OK.

In the registry, this is set at keyHKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System(you may need to create missing sub-keys).Create two REG_SZ items, one named Wallpaper for the path to theimage file, and the other WallpaperStyle whose value is 4.

Since I updated to Windows 11 I've been having a weird issue. I'm not able to select a different wallpaper for each of my two monitors. In the Personalization>Background menu, upon right clicking on the image to display the context menu, if I select "Set for Desktop 2" it does not change anything. On the other hand if I select "Set for Desktop 1" it changes the background for both monitors. Please note that I have my dual monitor set to Extend and not duplicate.

Hover over the "desktop" app on the taskbar next to the magnifying glass. It should say "Desktop 1" & "New Desktop". Open a New Desktop and remove "Desktop 1". After I did this it worked for me. I hope it works for you too! :)

This fixed it for me. I went to windows 11 > Display Settings > disconnected all monitors but the main one, re-extended my 2nd monitor. Went into Display Settings > Personalization > Background > and then had the right-click option on a recent image to select monitor 1 or 2.

I had virtual desktops active. What I had to do was remove all the virtual desktops, then I was able to select the background for specific monitors using the right-click menu on Recent Images in Settings > Personalization > Background.

Of course, using this method, all virtual desktops need to have the same background setup, but that works fine for me. I couldn't find a way to set backgrounds for individual monitors and different virtual desktops.

If pairing does not work for you, see the Backup Solution section at the bottom of this page to learn how to create mobile wallpaper packages (.mpkg) and how to import them on your mobile device.

We recommend installing the app through the official app store release but you can also directly download the latest app directly from our homepage. For download links and more information, please view our Android download page:

In the Windows app, click on the Mobile button in the upper right corner of the user interface. The mobile device overview will open up. At the bottom device overview, click on the Connect new Device button. Wallpaper Engine will show you a 4-digit PIN that you can use to pair one mobile device in the next step.

In the Wallpaper Engine mobile companion app, click on Add in the lower right corner, followed by clicking on Pair with Computer. The Wallpaper Engine app will search your local network for running instances of Wallpaper Engine for Windows. Your Windows computer should appear after a few seconds, allowing you to connect to it by clicking on it. If you are connecting for the first time, you will be asked to enter the 4-digit PIN (see Windows section above).

Once you have entered your PIN, the status bar in the mobile app turns green and shows which computer its connected to. On the Windows app, the Mobile button is also colored green now to indicate that a mobile connection is active.

You can now simply click on the Send to Mobile Device button on the right-hand side or right-click on any compatible wallpaper and select Send to Mobile Device, followed by selecting your device from the list.

Dynamic and interactive wallpapers that are of the Scene type will first be optimized for use on mobile phones and to ensure compatibility with mobile hardware. This process may take a short while. You will also be asked which quality option you would like to use, especially for high-resolution wallpapers, we recommend trying the Balanced option if you notice performance issues on your mobile device.

It worked after I installed the Font Installer and uninstall Figma from the other windows user. Then I closed and reopen Figma. Not sure whether the second step was necessary or I just needed to switch out from my windows account.

Windows 10 is an operating system released by Microsoft in 2015. It is the successor to 8.1. Unlike previous versions of Windows, builds are released very frequently and major updates are provided at no cost.

Chris Raykovich (acting as director) and Marylee Johnson (acting as executive producer) were responsible for the production of Windows 10's wallpaper sets. They commissioned former National Geographic photographer Steve McCurry[1] to take photos at New Zealand, and Chad Copeland to take photos around the world.[2][3] Along with the new wallpapers, the Flowers theme from its predecessor would be reused in the final release of Windows 10. McCurry and Copeland also took several shots that did not make it into the final release, which are present on Raykovich and Johnson's websites.

The default wallpaper was created by a team led by graphic designer Bradley G. Munkowitz. It is included at many different resolutions as low as 1024x768 and as high as 3840x2160. A version of this wallpaper was included in Windows 10 S, a feature-limited edition of Windows 10 designed primarily for low-end devices in the education market, which only allows the installation of apps from Microsoft Store; system settings are locked to only allow Microsoft Edge as the default web browser with Bing as its search engine. This edition existed only in Windows 10 Creators Update (version 1703) and Fall Creators Update (version 1709). With Windows 10 April 2018 Update (version 1803), Windows 10 S became a mode (called "S mode") available in Home, Pro, and Pro Education editions. Starting with Windows 10 May 2019 Update (version 1903), it was replaced with a more simplified version that features a bright blue background. An alternative variant of the simplified wallpaper was later included in the Windows 365 service as the default wallpaper for virtual machines that run on the aforementioned operating system.

First released with version 1703, Windows 10 China Government Edition, also called Enterprise G, is an edition designed for use within branches of the Chinese government as part of the partnership between Microsoft and China Electronics Technology Group. Its wallpapers depicts landmarks of mainland China and contains the watermark of CMIT, a Chinese holding JV jointly established by China Electronics Technology Group and Microsoft. Versions 1703 to 1803 contains the same Flowers theme as other editions, and versions 1809 and 21H2 both feature an entirely different set of wallpapers. It's currently unknown who took these wallpapers.

The Team SKU of Windows 10 contains an entirely different set of wallpapers, all at 3840x2160 as opposed to 1920x1200 in order to accommodate for the screen resolution of the Microsoft Surface Hub. They are split into two folders: Cat01 and Cat02. At least three of the images present in this set are alternative versions of lock screen wallpapers present in other editions of Windows 10. Most of the wallpapers present in this set are in PNG format, resulting in large file sizes.
