Hello everybody,

 

I made a system restore and now I have problem.

When I try to change wallpaper or lock screen by opening picture I want to have and trying setting it as wallpaper,I got error ''Try a different photo''.

I could change it with no problems before I made system restore,but I got that error with every photo I got.

I CAN change wallpaper when I'm on internet by opening image and right clicking it and setting it as wallpaper.

However problem occurs after I download picture and then trying to set it as wallpaper.

I have Windows 10 Professional 64bit

Then reboot your PC and try again.

Have you tried restarting the pc? 

 

is windows activated? 

I'm actually one of those people who thinks that anonymity is overrated. Some people confuse privacy and anonymity and think they go hand in hand, and that protecting privacy means that you need to protect anonymity. I think that's wrong. Anonymity is important if you're a whistle-blower, but if you cannot prove your identity, your crazy rant on some social-media platform shouldn't be visible, and you shouldn't be able to share it or like it.
