The pictures are taken in various locations from around the world, and all are approved by Microsoft to ensure only the best are included.These photos can be used as either your wallpaper or lock screen background, and they are selected randomly and changed every few hours.
Quick and easy installation
After going through the setup process, you may need to reboot your PC. Once that is done, your wallpaper should now feature a new image downloaded by the application. To configure the program, simply access the settings panel from the Start menu.The service can be enabled or disabled at any time, and you can even change the current wallpaper manually if you are not happy with it. If you like, you can also enable the feature on any new accounts that are created.
