Decor8

Desktop Wallpaper

Saturday, October 26, 2013 by RedneckDude | Discussion: OS Customization

Is it normal to have to log off and back on in Windows 8.1 in order for desktop wallpaper to show up on the Decor8 screen?

 

I set it, but it doesn't take effect.

Jim,

8.1 naturally does this. I think you either have to turn windows ability to do it off, or on. Can't remember as I went back to 8.0 because of the dang tile colors.

to toggle this setting right click on the taskbar and choose properties. Go to the navigation tab. There is an option titled: Show my desktop background on Start.
