I want to make a new wallpaper theme but I can't find the option for it anywhere. I have the folder full of wallpapers in my pictures folder but when I go to the theme selection there's no option to make a new theme. It has all the ones I already have and the default ones that came with the computer but that's it. I've done almost a dozen different internet searches trying to figure it out and all I get are stupid tutorials that say the same crap. Can anyone help me?

And do NOT post junk like "Solve the problem by not having Win10" or "Macs are better!" I get enough of that from the SB.

Have we all gone mad? Have we lost our minds? What used to be wrong, we say that is right.

From the tutorials I can find on the internet (I have a Mac/Win7 or I'd try it on my computer!), it looks like it's pretty similar to other versions of Windows: -Right-click on the desktop, select Personalize -Choose "Desktop background" -Click the background you want to use. It looks like you may need to fiddle around with the filters at the top of this page to display your backgrounds folder instead of the default Windows backgrounds. -Click "Save Changes".

Here's the tutorial I was looking at. Hopefully that helps.

they/them/theirs, please.

I guess this'll work. So does this mean it won't let me make an actual theme anymore? Is there some kind of limit I don't know about?

I'm not sure I'm understanding the difference between a background and a theme, sorry :

Themes you can actually save to the computer.

Settings -> Personalization -> Themes

It rotates through wallpapers like your method but you just click the one you want instead of searching through your folders more than once.

I guess this works though. Thanks.
