This feature has never worked, but I have never really noticed it before until I saw a screenshot on the screenshot page:

I have set a background to span both desktops on windows logon, but it only works on my left hand monitor, the right is blank..

Any advice?

Thanks

If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7, this is a Windows limitation. The logon background will only be displayed on your primary monitor.

Is the single monitor logon background also a limitation in Windows 8 and Windows 10?

Unfortunately, yes

It works with actual multiple monitors, why can't it work on display fusion?

Interesting! Perhaps they've found a creative workaround. We'll have to have another look into this

Had a chance to test it out, it does indeed seem to work pretty well. We'll definitely revisit this feature and see if it's something we can add as well.

Any updates on this fix? It's been a while since anyone posted on this issue. I too would like to get this working for me.

Sorry, we haven't had a chance to spend a significant amount of time on this request, but we will be sure to post an update if/when we are able to implement it.

Thanks!
