How Do I Change My Desktop Background?

You can customize your computer desktop screen with photos of your kids, pets, vacation photos, etc. To customize the desktop...

To change the current background, click on the START Menu and select the CONTROL PANEL.

Click on Appearance and Themes.

Select the "CHANGE THE DESKTOP BACKGROUND"

From here, you can select any background that is currently listed. You can also change the position of the picture on the desktop once selected. Under the POSITION tab, using the drop down box, select CENTER to have the picture centered on the desktop, STRETCH to have the picture fill the entire screen, or TILE to have multiple frames of the same picture show.

If you do not have the picture in this toolbar that you want as your background, you can also access it by going into the MY PICTURES icon and opening the picture you want to use as your background. Once the picture is selected, RIGHT CLICK and a box will open with an option to SET AS DESKTOP BACKGROUND. This will set it to the background automatically. To change the picture options, open the CONTROL PANEL just like you would to set up the background for the first time. Once you have added the picture into this system, it will be saved if you change the background to something else and then want to change it back again later
