Just a couple of quick questions. Is it okay to install this Beta 11.0.1.0 over 11.0.0.0?

Will all the settings remain intact?

Was the WinCustomize upload of Previews for Wallpapers updated to accept .JPEG files?

I tested it, I installed over and it working as normal.

On Jpeg files, I checked, I believe, Need to add JPEG tag to be allowed for upload. I have forward your problem/question to Stardock Support Team for their assistance. We appreciate your feedback and patience.

Thanks

Good morning.

I installed the Deskscape update: no problem.

After the requested restart, everything is back!

That works !

i updated to the beta version the regular won't work, im on the canary/dev build 26085 they are the same right now. When I select an animated dream it opens another window that says active window with dream working fine but not my background and when I choose a wallpaper I had to go to the location of wallpaper on my computer to set it. i tried the purge and restart options

“Just system defaults”: this is not enough.

Which Windows, which RAM size and which processor...

Sorry, but this information helps a lot.

Personally, I have an X299 and an i7 9800X with 32GB of RAM and a 2080 Super and latest Windows 11 Pro installed on a 1TB M2. So it's not really a moped.

Good morning.

I didn't find "nvidia M360" or "Intel Arc 3.6"

I know about Intel Arc graphics cards. Nvidia graphics cards, too.

For the rest, I included 1TB hard drive and 16GB of RAM.

Lenovo ideapad 16 :

And there's more after...

For RAM and disk, it's good.

Unfortunately we do not provide support for insider versions of Windows.

The canary channel in particular often has things which may never even make it to a release version of Windows.

I'm running Windows 11 and have three LG 4K monitors; two are landscape-oriented and one is portrait-oriented.

Within Windows Display Settings, the monitors are enumerated this way:

Monitor 2 (Landscape), Monitor 3 (Landscape), Monitor 1 (Portrait).

(Left, Center, Right)

 

However, in Deskscapes when I am trying to assign different wallpapers to different monitors, Deskscapes shows me:

Monitor 1 (3840x2160)

Monitor 2 (3840x2160)

Monitor 3 (2160x3840)

(Left, Center, Right)

 

Shouldn't Deskscapes present the monitors using the same enumeration that Windows uses?

(It was quick to figure out since I just wanted a different wallpaper on the vertical one, but I thought it was odd that the numbering varied.)

 

Also, I'm disappointed there isn't a selection of vertically oriented wallpaper (and/or a category for it.)

Don't you use F@H? (folding home)

I have Windows 11, a core i7 9800X and 32 GB of RAM, and a 2080 Super. I have 8GB of RAM, permanently occupied. I have no problem with Deskscape, just with Fence: with ETS and ATS, return to the desktop and blockages. I removed Fence and it works.

You have what you need in terms of equipment to make it work. If it doesn't work, you have your Windows, which is affected. In these cases, I try to repair it. It's very effective. You download the ISO image, put it on your desktop, click on it, go to the disk and setup.exe.

You follow, you pay attention, that the boxes "keep applications, files, etc. are checked. You will end up with a new Windows. I have done it very often.

It's tempting.
