Wallpaper Alterer

Wallpaper Alterer is a cool tool that helps you customize your desktop after you install Windows. Once you set it up, you'll be looking for ways to make your workspace feel more like you. Changing the wallpaper is an easy way to start, and if the default options don’t do it for you, this third-party app might just be what you need!

Easy Installation and Setup

This application installs on your computer super quickly! Before you know it, the main window pops up, allowing you to pick which folder of pictures you'd like to use for your new desktop slideshow.

Selecting Your Favorite Images

You can’t choose individual files yet; instead, you'll select an entire folder using a browse dialog. The app even gives some stats in a panel, showing how many pictures are in there and how long the scan took. Plus, there’s an option to make it run with Windows so it’s ready when you log in.

Changing Wallpapers Made Simple

Once you've picked a folder, the wallpaper changes automatically! There’s a refresh button if you want to update the list or switch images right away. Just keep in mind that closing the app stops everything; you'll need to reopen it for a new picture to show up. But hey, if you're in a hurry, you can set up a hotkey to launch it instantly!

Limitations of Wallpaper Alterer

The downside? You’ll have to change your wallpaper manually whenever it starts feeling stale because there aren't any automatic options besides changing at startup. Also, make sure your images fit the screen since there are no fill options available.

Final Thoughts

While Windows has its built-in customization options that are pretty easy to use and offer lots of choices, Wallpaper Alterer doesn’t quite hit all the marks. It lacks automation features and doesn't let you set screen attributes either.
