Windows 10: Every time I turn off my pc, my personalized background disappears. Why does that happen...

Every time I turn off my pc, my personalized background disappears. Why does that happen and how can I prevent it from happening again?

regarding background personalize settings

Hi Singh,

The Some setting are managed by your organization message usually appears if there is any changes happened on the Registry Editor or Group policy Editor. We suggest editing the Group Policy by following the steps below:

• Open Group Policy by typing it in the search box.
• Look for Administrative Templates and click on it.
• Select Control Panel.
• Click on Prevent changing desktop background and it will open an new window.
• Select Disable on the choices and click Apply.

Once the changes were made, try to customize your background again.

Update us with the outcome so we can provide further assistance.

 

background (wallpaper) seems to be hung


I see on my background a picture from a series of pictures I wanted for a slide show. Went to Settings/Personalization/Backgrond and followed the steps once upon a time and I think it worked? Anyway, now the app appears to be hung and I don't know how to get it working. I've tried going through the settings and can change the background (behind the slideshow) color but nothing else. I found your forum and tried many of the ideas suggested to no avail. Can someone suggest how to get it working again?

 

Windows 10 background/slideshow breaks after invoking Task View - please try and see

I'm curious if anyone else is experiencing this issue on Windows 10 build 10240 (or any other post RTM build).

Steps to reproduce issue:

• Right click on desktop and select Personalize
• From the Personalization -> Background screen, select "Slideshow" as background
• Browse to a directory with your pics
• Exit Personalization
• Right Click desktop and select "Next desktop background" a few times, to confirm background image is changing
• From the Task Bar, click on the icon "Task View"
• From the Task View screen, click on one of your active apps or anywhere in the background to exit.
• Repeat step 5
• Does your desktop background suddenly disappear? Are you able to switch to the next desktop background if you try a few more times?

The problem I am experiencing is that the background image disappears, and trying to switch to the next desktop background no longer does anything (ie; the background stays black/blank).

Interestingly, if you click on Task View again, you will see the "next desktop background" image displayed. If you click any app or the background to get out of Task View, your next desktop background is displayed again. But if you repeat step 5 above,
the problem happens all over again. The only way to fix this behavior, is to reboot.

I'm wondering if this issue is unique to my system, or a general Windows 10 bug.

Would appreciate if anyone could give it a try.
