Re: Windows 11 Background 4k
Sandrine Willert
I recently upgraded to W11 and now whenever I want to switch desktops, or create new ones, my background does not show up on the desktop switcher. It doesn't affect my workflow, just my OCD. Is there a way of fixing this?
I just figured it out (at least this worked for me)! I had to go to Personalization>Background and select the image again and it acts like it's uploading the image to the desktop. In task view (desktop switcher), it shows up again!
DesktopBackground specifies the path to a graphic file that is used for the desktop background. The desktop background image can reside in any subfolder under %windir%. The desktop background can only be set in the default theme.
Select an image which will look good when cropped to the common aspect ratios for your computer. In most cases, we recommend that you use a 1920x1200 image with the focal point of the image near the center.
On a Windows Server 2012 Remote Desktop Session Host with the Desktop Experience feature enabled and the desktop wallpaper disabled, users wish to configure own color schemes and define an own desktop background color. However, I seem unable to find an easy way to change the desktop color via the GUI.
I would expect the settings to reside under Appearance settings -> Colors -> Advanced Appearance Settings but those are unavailable in Windows 8 and Server 2012. Is there a replacement GUI dialog for this or do I have the ability to allow users to create their own design schemes containing the appropriate desktop background color?
Users can still change the desktop background color in Windows Server 2012. Note that you need to have Desktop Experience installed. You also have to allow users to change their colors and desktop background in Group Policy.
The first tile is Automatic and Windows will derive the colors from the desktop background wallpaper. (Assuming all the bugs are fixed.) Selecting any other tile will allow customization.
thanks for the help. The mistake I was making is when you first click on appearance there is a background on thaat page which I had set to white.but I think its refering to text rather than the background of the viewport
I wanted to mention something that I think is an issue. It is mildly frustrating to myself at least. I'm using Teamviewer 14.5 and Windows 7, as far as I know this issue has been present since I've been using Teamviewer for the past few years. It has to do with when you connect to a remote computer and the option to "show blank background" is selected. After the connection session is ended, on the remote pc Teamviewer restores the previous background image BUT if that remote pc was using a theme with a slideshow of background images, it does not get restored to that original theme as was once active on that remote pc. Teamviewer seems to simply make a new temporary theme with only a single image, whichever image was being displayed at the time of connection, and that single image gets restored as the final background on that computer. It is mildly frustrating when that setting gets overwritten each time you remote in to help somebody and their settings don't get restored properly. Hopefully that is explained properly.
Augmented reality is AWESOME and Teamviewer is doing great things, but these little details will also make the already great software just that much better. Hopefully this is something that can be fixed in future versions.
Has this issue been fixed? I have a similar issue on our Win10 clients. When establishing the connection to a client needing support, the background on the desktop turns black. Icons are all present and work properly. I was thinking this was some kind of bandwidth saver or something. Anyway, the users sometimes call me back after support has ended, stating their background is still black (they usually have a picture set to the Background).
Connected to user and noticed their background was orange instead of black. I assumed since it was a solid color it was not being replaced with black like normal. After I disconnected, the user message me on MS Teams letting me know I was still connected. I confirmed I was not and asked why they thought so. She said her screen didn't change back from orange to her beautiful mountains. So Team Viewer changed the background to orange instead of black, then left it that way.
No - the RPA works as if it is an employee. It takes control of the computer it's running on. With RPA, usually you'll want to create a VM and have the bot own that instance and run over there, so you don't collide with it.
License needed for PAD... it depends! Do you need this flow to only run when you click a "go!" button, or, do you need it to be triggered and/or run on a schedule? The prior is cheaper than the latter.
Um ... I'm not sure if my knowledge of these things is high enough, because the sentence "a VM inside my own computer" doesn't make sense to me, but who knows, maybe there is a way to split a computer and have activity happening in a VM you connect to and .... I don't know. I'm paging someone way smarter than me. @VJR
And you want to have Power Automate Desktop installed on the VM and run bots there while you work on your local computer? If so, the bots run properly till the time the VM is locked out. Meaning, as soon as the VM is locked out (eg; 10 mins as per settings) then the bot finds it difficult to detect UI elements and so on.
But if you have a dedicated machine for running bots then you can run them on these VMs via unattended automation from the Cloud Flows where you configure these VMs by giving their credentials, machine name etc and then the login/logout to those VMs automatically happen without any issues.
