2 monitor desktop wallpaper

Wensi

So I recently just set up my 2nd monitor and when I set an image to become a wallpaper, it automatically sets that image to both displays. How do I make 1 image on 1 display and a different one on another?

DisplayFusion works great for this. I use it myself.

You can use a program such as "DisplayFusion".

you can, but it's not necessary, windows 10 "pulled" the different wallpapers on different monitors thing, but it's still functionality that exits trough one of W10's many loopholes:

 

you can make a shortcut to:

C:\Windows\System32\control.exe /name Microsoft.Personalization /page pageWallpaper

which opens the old wallpaper configuration page, where by right click you get the option between set for all monitors, or set to a specific monitor.

I just open my DisplayFusion via the System Tray where most icons are hidden on your taskbar.
