So, go in, set settings on Monitor #1 for downloading and applying wallpaper. Set settings on Monitor #2 for the same. Press apply. Oh, wait, I want it to change every 30 minutes, not hour. Change that, press apply....

You have selected 'Randomly load from: Wallpaper Abyss' for monitor #1 but didn't enter any settings.
Please enter settings for 'Wallpaper Abyss' or select a different Wallpaper Source.


Except the settings are still right there. I can even click "Get Settings" and they're all exactly as I had them. This wasn't a problem in whatever version I had a few days ago, but in Steam 9.0, it's terrible.

Just now I even set my settings again, clicked Apply, my wallpapers changed, so I hit OK.

Glad/not glad that I'm not the only one with this issue. Just updated recently to 9.0 and ran into this issue almost right away.

"You have selected 'Randomly load from: Wallpaper Abyss' for monitor #2 but didn't enter any settings.

Ugh! Anybody find a workaround yet?

Could you guys try this test build?


That one's workin' Keith! Loaded it up, immediately hit Apply, it downloaded wallpapers with the settings I had. Changed the Interval on Monitor #1 and hit Apply again, and no complaints. Download wallpapers again and applied them!

Hello Keith,
New build is holding search settings now. I did experience one weird behavior. After installing the new build, I set up my search preferences for both monitors, verified that pressing Apply a few times cycled in a different wallpaper for each monitor and quit the application from the tray icon.

I relaunched the app from the Start menu, then left clicked on the tray icon to open up the wallpaper settings window and not changing any settings, I simply clicked Apply. Monitor two changed its wallpaper, while monitor one did not. Clicked Apply again, same results.

Then I selected monitor one and upped the Interval time from 60.00 to 360.00, clicked Apply to save my changes and now both wallpapers updated.

I quit and relaunched app again, simply clicked Apply like before and both wallpapers changed as expected. Subsequent relaunches appear to hold the settings, so I can no longer reproduce the behavior.

Just wanted to add that I too had this issue, where the settings for the 2nd monitor were not saving. I run 2 monitors: 1 uses video for wallpapers and the other pulls wallpapers from Wallpaper Abyss. The video monitor is able to cycle through and change its wallpaper but the one polling from Wallpaper Abyss is unable to change its wallpaper using the slideshow feature.

I've only come across this issue in the new 9.0 release. It wasn't a problem in previous builds.

After trying out the build mentioned/provided a few comments above, I can safely say that everything is now working as intended.
