Windows 11 shows "Set as Desktop" instead of "Set as Monitor"

If you use multiple virtual desktops (Win Tab), Windows 11 does not allow you to set a different wallpaper for each monitor. Instead, right-clicking on an image in the Recent Images section opens a menu for setting the background for a specific desktop. You can get around this weird Windows 11 quirk by deleting all virtual desktops, using the tutorial above to create wallpapers for each monitor, and restoring previously deleted desktops.

#If you don’t want to delete your virtual desktop, try using the old Control Panel to set a different wallpaper for each monitor in Windows 11. Keep in mind that accessing the required sections is a quirk in itself, but at the same time, it provides some convenience functionality that the "new" Settings app lacks. For example, the control panel lets you select multiple images for background or select an entire folder at the same time.

    Press
  1. Win R and paste the following command into the Run window:
  2. 外壳:::{ED834ED6-4B5A-4bfe-8F11-A626DCB6A921} -Microsoft.Personalization\pageWallpaper
    The above command will launch with Desktop Background section of Control Panel. Click the
  1. Browse button to select images for different monitors in Windows 11.
