2. Introduction
So you’re sick of looking at the
standard Windows background on
your desktop and want to spice it up
a bit, what can you do? This guide
will help you change that
background into something you may
find more aesthetically pleasing.
3. Step One: Accessing the
Settings Menu
Click on the Start Button on the left hand side of the task bar.
Select “Settings.” (It usually appears as a gear icon)
4. Step Two:
The Settings
Menu
The settings menu appears. Select the
“Personalization” option, which is the
fourth option of the first row.
6. Step Four:
Select Type of
Background
On the right hand side of the menu
there should be a preview image of
your current background. Below that is
a drop-down menu. Click on it to select
the type of background you would like.
In this example we will choose the
“Picture” option.
7. Step Five:
Select a
Picture
Below the drop down menu there are
samples of various background images.
Select one and it will display a preview
of your desktop with your selection.
Additionally, you can select the browse
option to preview more options.
8. Step Six:
Choose a Fit
Below where you selected your
picture there is another drop down
menu asking you to choose your fit.
Clicking on any of the option will
change the preview box above. In this
example I chose the “Fit” option.
9. Step Seven:
Check out Your
New Background
Minimize the Personalization Menu
to see how your new desktop image
looks. If you don’t like it you can
always readjust it.
