I am trying to set a custom wallpaper for each of my monitors, and all the internet is telling me to pick a picture from the "Recent Images" in the Personalization>Background section of the settings, right click it and choose "Monitor 1" or "Monitor 2". However, I am only getting the option for "Desktop 1" and "Desktop 2".

This does not change the wall paper for the monitors.

Close all additional Virtual Desktops first, then set wallpapers, then go back to the setup you had.

Hey Edwin,

I am unaware of any "Virtual Desktops" that I have. I closed most of the running programs I have open, and just restarted my PC to be sure. Is there somewhere I should look?
