Changing Virtual Desktop Background
I recently just got my dell xps 17 9700 and very happy with this purchase. But just a question regarding how to change my virtual desktop backgrounds. When I change a desktop background, the other ones change to the same one as well. I've tried to right click on the individual desktop in task view, but there is no option to change the individual desktop background. (all drivers and windows 10 updates are the latest)
Does anyone know how to change the settings so that each of the virtual desktop can have different backgrounds?

If you are set to sync settings, that might be the reason. I doubt you can change the sync settings on diff monitors since sync is for diff computers and devices - About sync settings on Windows 10 devices (microsoft.com)

It’s not between monitors, it’s between virtual desktops. When you swipe up with three fingers on your trackpad, the desktops will be at the top.

Hi, if your Windows is updated to the latest build and the issue remains, then you will need to use third-party software in order to be able to use different backgrounds for each virtual desktop.
