Hi, years ago I started using a program called Wally (ok, maybe not the greatest choice of names, some might say...).
sourceforge.net
www.softpedia.com
Now this is old ('ancient') freeware.. but it works really well.
On Win 10 I have it set up to cycle through a set of images I collected long ago that make suitable wallpaper against which icons show clearly.
But on Win 11, I decided to simply install the program, and set it to choose a picture from a couple of online sources it has preconfigured. You can filter these- I chose 'forest'.
I have the program set to launch on logon, change the wallpaper and exit. No overhead thereafter.
The result is a rather lovely fresh forest image every time I log on.
Of course, there are other such wallpaper changers.. I've not looked for one for years, being happy with this one.
