Is there any way of having separate wallpapers for separate monitors without having to download a program that has to start on launch?

You should be able to right click on the wallpaper you want for an induvidual monitor.  Right click at the desktop and click personalize.  When you go to desktop background, there you should find your saved wallpapers.  Right click on the one you want, and there should be something along the lines of "assign to monitor 1 or 2"

This is going to save me so much hassle. Before you told us this I used display fusion to do it, and was always a bit frustrated at how cumbersome the interface in that program is.

Could you go into a bit more detail? I'm following it exactly as you typed it, but when I right click on the wallpaper, there isn't anything about assigning it to an individual monitor...

Did you get it to work? I can't.

Are you using win7 or win8/8.1?

 

Works perfectly the way Grape instructs for win8.1.

Windows 7. I guess the functionality isn't built in, damn you Microsoft...
