After installing the latest version, the wallpaper now doesn't change. I have it set up to select a different wallpaper from a selected folder. However, the wallpaper doesn't change. I tried doing manually and on the setup screen it shows the new wallpaper but it doesn't apply it to the desktop.

If you reboot the machine, then try to apply the wallpaper again, does it work?

No it doesn't. I also had to apply Admin rights on the app as it would continue to request administrative rights but it wouldn't load. So there seems to be an issue with window's security. Not sure if maybe the latest window's update could be causing any issues? I have the Window's Pro Insider preview.

Ok, that's strange! Normally setting the wallpaper wouldn't require admin rights. If you roll back to the previous version of DisplayFusion, does it work as expected?

Hi,

I ended having to reinstall the app. However, now, when I try to load it went back to the error that it requires elevation. I'm set as administrator on this account. I'm the only account on this laptop, so don't understand why it would ask this. When I first click on it the windows asking to approve admin rights for the app comes up, I click on ok but still the message keeps coming up.:x

I think I found the solution. Need to go to the properties of the exe file. Go to Compatibility, click on Run As Administrator. Up to here it wasn't still working. What made the difference is that further down I selected "change options for all users". Once that was done. It worked. So it seems that DF looks at all users, or windows makes DF look at all users rather than the current admin user only.

I should've checked everthing before posting here. Sorry. Now the app loads, but it still refuses to change the wallpaper. I'm at my wits end. Can figure out why it keeps doing this.

Could you send me a debug log for this issue?

  • On the DisplayFusion Settings > Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal" and then click "Clear Log"
  • Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
  • Click the "Export Info to File" button on the Settings > Troubleshooting tab
  • Reply with the file attached
  • Disable debug logging after sending the log

Thanks!
