How to change your desktop wallpaper.


There are two common ways to change your desktop.  The first way is through control panel.  Click the start button go to control panel and select it.  Once you have selected it, click on “appearance and personalization”.  Next step, click on “personalization”.  Once you have reached this far, at the end of the personalization screen you should be able to see “desktop background”.  You will see a few pre-installed wallpapers that came with your computer.  If you do not like the wallpapers that are installed you can browse from you picture library.  To do so, next to “picture location” at the top of the personalization screen click “browse”.  You can choose a picture from your photo library or upload one from an external device.  Select the picture that you want and click ok.  Once you’ve saved it and you’re back on the main screen again, click apply and you should see that your desktop have changed.  The next and simplest way is by right clicking on your desktop. If you have any other windows that are open at the moment, minimize or close them.  Once you’re on the desktop, right click and select “personalize’.  You will then see the same screen as mentioned in the first explanation.
