I Hate The New Windows Background.

those 2 wallpaper are just trash


he really should just pick one of the 3 wallpapers I posted and use that permanently, staring at that windows logo for life makes me scared and want to snuggle with teddies under the covers :(

it's just illogical and breaks the space time continuum of physics itself, that someone could choose that image over one of the ones I use...

neat analogy huh? :roll:
 
There's also a 3rd Windows 10 one that Microsoft released to Insiders.

I use a lot from interfacelift.. and set a slide show to change every 10 mins or so.
 
I assume the OP is referring to a clean install, in which case who at Microsoft in their infinite wisdom decided that only the Recycle Bin and Edge icons should appear on the desktop when the install has finished?
The first icon I usually hit is My Computer aka This PC, but then you have to dig down into themes to show it on the desktop. And how is that part of a theme anyway?
Bonkers.

Windows 9x, Windows 2000 came with all them icons enabled by default.

20th century Windows FTW lol

Oh! I got an email about that! However, I never got to download it, because I was too busy laughing at the email content. It was so formal...
 
I like it because the desktop can get busy. Don't need any distractions
 
Partially we are all very bored, same reason you are here I imagine.
This is unironically the truest thing anyone has ever said to me on this forum. Thank you for your honesty

Insiders are a big deal. They deserve only the best! Haha.
 
Yeah, well... People would be upset if MS suddenly said "hey, we are removing the wallpaper feature since it's not really important".

I miss using animated GIFs as wallpapers, though....


Should work? I've been using it for more than a year now and it has never failed between a wide range of full screened and highly demanding applications and games. Rock solid, low perf impact.
 
I just have a black screen.
clear cmos and reset the pc to default.

not on topic,but wallpaper related and funny.
I arranged my colleague's icons into a phallus and took a screenshot,then set it as wallpaper and aligned them again.

the look on his face when he started moving them and they stayed :roll:

After changing to the screenshot you should right click, go to View, and uncheck Show desktop icons. ;)
