One of the great things about Windows is its customization options when it comes to Windows 11 wallpapers. Like Windows 10, you can change your accent colors and tweak your wallpapers to your liking. But did you know that there are now more than one way you can change files Windows 11 wallpaper to make it your own?
From Bing wallpapers to built-in background functionality and themes and now, Windows Spotlight, we’ve taken a look at some of the best ways you can customize Windows 11 wallpapers. Just keep in mind, though, that all of these methods will apply the same wallpaper to all of your screens, because Windows 11 It does not natively allow you to change the wallpaper for separate screens. However, let’s jump in!
Use preset background from Microsoft or OEM
The first on our list is the most obvious setting, using your wallpaper or a pre-selected setting from Microsoft or your laptop maker. This is one of the best ways to customize your wallpaper, because it’s easy. Simply head over to the Windows 11 Settings app with Windows key And me on your keyboard. then choose Personalization. From there, choose from one of the Microsoft Images. There are a total of five default wallpapers, two of which are flower wallpaper featured in dark and light mode.
If you want more customization, choose slideshow Option then browse to a folder on your computer with the photos. This will allow your computer to change pictures every now and then, shuffle the order of pictures, and give you a new look on your desktop in the time period you specify.
Note that if you use any of these options, they will apply to all of your screens, and you can’t customize the wallpaper you see on each one. This is the limit Microsoft has set in the current version of Windows 11.
Using your own custom wallpaper
The next option is a setting option in the Windows 11 Settings app to allow you to use your own background. This could be something downloaded from the Internet, or a picture of a pet, family member, or significant other. Simply head over to the Windows Settings app again with Windows key And me, and go to Personalization. Search Choose a picture to choose.
From there, tap Browse photos, and browse to find the image you want. Again, the image you choose will be set on all screens, as there is currently no easy way to change the wallpaper on each of your screens (without complicated registry hacks we don’t recommend.) If you want a great site to find custom wallpapers, we suggest Wallpaperhub. app. It contains a collection of Microsoft wallpapers and backgrounds for you to download!
using theme
The third option on our list is a wallpaper that comes with a theme. These types of wallpapers will change the way your PC looks and feel, as they, in addition to accent colors, will modify Windows sounds and, in some cases, the cursor. Windows themes are available in the Microsoft Store. To find and change themes, go to the Windows Settings app, and choose Personalization followed by themes. Choose one from the many options available, Including Windows Light Mode, Windows Dark Mode, Captured Motion, and more. You can download themes from the Microsoft Store by clicking Browse Topics button.
Use Bing wallpapers
As we make our way down the list, we now come to Bing Wallpaper. This includes an additional download from Microsoft, but with it, you can have a different desktop image every day. Simply download and install the app, and the app will automatically apply the picture of the day from Bing.com to your desktop. If you don’t like the image, just go to the system tray, right-click on the Bing Wallpaper icon, and click the back arrow next to change background. This will allow you to go back in time to a previous image from the Bing.com homepage.
Use the new Windows Spotlight option
If you are a daring person and want to try out older versions of Windows, you can get a new option to change the wallpaper in Windows 11 through what is known as Windows Spotlight Wallpaper. The Windows Spotlight option is what you might normally see on the lock screen. Displays a new picture on the lock screen every day. An initial background image is included during installation. Additional images are downloaded continuously, sometimes matching what’s on Bing.com (as we said above).
This option was recently introduced in Windows 11 Dev Channel and Beta Channel Build 22598. To get this capability, you must enroll your computer in the Windows Insider Dev or Beta Channel. Once you do that, the option should appear to you in Windows 11 Settings as we’re about to describe.
Using the Windows Spotlight option for your wallpaper is kind of like the Bing Wallpaper option. You can have a different image as your desktop background, and update it as you see fit. Once you have set up your PC as a Windows Insider, head over to the Personalization page in Windows 11 Settings (Windows key + mefollowed by Personalization.) Then choose from there background. pick or pick Windows Spot Lite From the list that says Personalize your background. Once you apply it, you will see a file Get to know this picture The link is in the upper right corner of your desktop. If you right-click on it, you can switch between different images or provide feedback about the image and learn more about it.
