Switch wallpaper1.1.0.0

Switch wallpaper is a lightweight software application whose purpose is to help you change your wallpaper. The program offers a simple way for setting two images as preferred wallpapers and quickly switching between them.

Simplistic looks

The utility reveals a plain and clean design that implements all configuration settings into a single window. You cannot read more about its tweaking parameters in a help manual so you need to experiment with the built-in options in order to get an idea about how they work.Images cannot be previewed in the main window. Photos can be imported using only the built-in browse button (the drag-and-drop support is not implemented).

Wallpaper configuration settings

Switch wallpaper offers you the possibility to add all sorts of image formats, such as GIF, JPG, BMP, ICO, EMF, and WMF. The application gives you the freedom to specify a background picture and create a desktop shortcut for the second photo so you can quickly switch from one to another.Tests have pointed out that the utility carries out a task quickly and without errors. It does not eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the computer is not hampered.On the downside, there’s no support for advanced features. Professional users may be disappointed by the poor support for customization and setting options. You cannot run the tool at Windows startup, automatically change the wallpaper at a custom time interval, set a preferred folder from where the app sets wallpapers, and alter the wallpaper at every system boot, just to name a few suggestions.

Final remarks

To sum things up, Switch wallpaper comes in handy only if you look for nothing more than basic options for managing wallpapers. It needs several feature enhancements until it can be described as a professional desktop enhancement utility.
