Two Monitors

Deskscapes blacks out mon 2 even when choosing mon 1

Deskscapes blacks out Monitor 2 when I choose "only monitor 1" and then personalize Monitor 2 as a separate image that I do not want to change ever. This is true whether a video or a stagnajnt Deskscapes image.

Please try, uninstall Deskscapes, reboot immediately (important), download latest version available in your account product download page: https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products. Install it, reboot immediately again. Retest it and report back.

Thank you,

I did all the uninstall/reinstall. It's still 11.02. I hit, within Deskscapes, installing a background "to a specific monitor", which is individual monitor 1, the background also installs on monitor 2, overwriting the background there. So then I click on the picture I want on monitor 2 and it flashes for maybe 1.5 seconds and then the monitor 1 screen appears. After about 20 seconds, monitor 2 turns dark. So then if I reapply the individual background I want to monitor 2, it still flashes for 1.5 seconds then goes black. 

 

If I individually overwrite the downloaded background from within Windows 11 / personalization, I can get both to stick. Thought I haven't yet rebooted or lived with it for awhile to thoroughly test.

Hello,
After reading your issue again, have you tried this, make two playlist. One with all your wallpapers you like to shows and apply that playlist to monitor 1 and create another playlist with only one wallpaper and apply that to monitor 2. Does that work?
