Windows 7 Wallpaper

Show all headers | View raw

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.

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.


How many times have you walked up to a system in your office and neededto click through several diagnostic windows to remind yourself ofimportant aspects of its configuration, such as its name, IP address, oroperating system version? If you manage multiple computers you probablyneed BGInfo. It automatically displays relevant information about aWindows computer on the desktop's background, such as the computer name,IP address, service pack version, and more. You can edit any field aswell as the font and background colors, and can place it in your startupfolder so that it runs every boot, or even configure it to display asthe background for the logon screen.


Background: Selects the color and/or wallpaper to use for thebackground. If you select the Copy existing settings option thenBGInfo will use whatever information is currently selected by thelogged on user. This option allows end users to personalize theirdesktop while still displaying the BGInfo information.


Desktops: Selects which desktops are updated when the configurationis applied. By default only the User Desktop wallpaper is changed.Enabling the Logon Desktop for Console users option specifies thatthe wallpaper should be displayed on the logon desktop that is presentedbefore anyone has logged onto the system. On Windows 95/98/ME systemsthe same desktop is used for users and the login screen, so this optionhas no effect. Enabling the Logon Desktop for Terminal Servicesusers option specifies that the wallpaper should be displayed on theTerminal Services login screen. This option is useful only on serversrunning Terminal Services.


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.






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.

Bliss, originally titled Bucolic Green Hills, is the default computer wallpaper of Microsoft's Windows XP operating system. It is a virtually unedited photograph of a green hill and blue sky with white clouds in the Los Carneros American Viticultural Area of California's Wine Country. Charles O'Rear took the photo in January 1996 and Microsoft bought the rights in 2000. It is estimated that billions of people have seen the picture, possibly making it the most viewed photograph in history.[1]


Former National Geographic photographer Charles O'Rear, a resident of the nearby Napa Valley, took the photo on film with a medium-format Mamiya RZ67 camera while on his way to visit his girlfriend in 1996. While it was widely believed later that the image was manipulated or even created with software such as Adobe Photoshop, O'Rear says it never was.[2][3] He sold it to Westlight for use as a stock photo titled Bucolic Green Hills.[4] Westlight was bought by Corbis in 1998, who digitized its best selling images.[5] Two years following the acquisition, Microsoft's design team selected images to be used as wallpapers in Windows XP. The image would eventually be chosen as the default wallpaper, resulting in the company acquiring the image and renaming it to Bliss.


In 2000, Microsoft's Windows XP development team contacted O'Rear through Corbis, which he believes they used instead of larger competitor Getty Images, also based in Seattle, because the former company is owned by Microsoft founder Bill Gates.[17] "I have no idea what [they] were looking for," he recalls. "Were they looking for an image that was peaceful? Were they looking for an image that had no tension?"[18] Another image of O'Rear's titled Full Moon over Red Dunes, known as Red moon desert in Windows XP, was also considered as the default wallpaper, but was changed due to testers comparing it to buttocks.[19]


Microsoft said they wanted not just to license the image for use as XP's default wallpaper, but to buy all the rights to it. They offered O'Rear what he says is the second-largest payment ever made to a photographer for a single image; however, he signed a confidentiality agreement and cannot disclose the exact amount.[20] It has been reported to be "in the low six figures."[1] O'Rear needed to send Microsoft the original film and sign the paperwork; however, when couriers and delivery services became aware of the value of the shipment, they declined since it was higher than their insurance would cover. Instead, the software company bought O'Rear a plane ticket and he personally delivered it to their offices.[1] "I had no idea where it was going to go," he said. "I don't think the engineers or anybody at Microsoft had any idea it would have the success it's had."[21]


Among others, the Microsoft Design site also hosts the default wallpapers that have come with several Surface PCs, quite a few Pride Month-themed wallpaper designs, and several images focused on the company's recent emoji redesigns and the icons for the Microsoft 365 apps.
