Hello,

I have been experiencing problems with my Windows 10 desktop backgrounds using images. Whenever I have an image set as my desktop background, I will be doing stuff within my computer and the background on my second monitor will just disappear and go black. I then go to my primary monitor and it's the same exact way. Using the refresh option from the desktop seems to give me problems as well. Please see the GIF below for an example of problems I have.

I have a Powercolor R9 270x graphics card with the latest AMD graphics driver.

Any idea what's going on?

Thanks!

wonder if its related to this bug: http://windowsreport.com/desktop-wallpaper-black-windows-8-1/
it works on win 10 too as I just followed the steps and suddenly black background.

I don't get the effect you have with icons showing the desktop wallpaper under them but I don't use icons so could be that.

Its a windows feature, its not your card as I have a GTX 980 and does same thing.

So far that link you provided me did the trick. I'm just leaving it at the default Windows 10 and see how it goes.

Thanks!
