Background

Background is a desktop wallpaper changer that comes with a great amount of configuration options.

Although so many settings are usually greatly appreciated by all users, they may scare away rookies in this case, especially since no help manual is available.

Basically, it all comes down to the configuration screen that holds all parameters concerning the wallpaper changing task.

First of all, you need to define the image locations, which can be any folder on your computer, as long as it comprises image files.

Obviously, you can also define the interval for changing the wallpapers, but also enable the app to automatically start at Windows boot and thus take control of the desktop background all by itself.

Of course, the image files must perfectly fit your desktop, so the scaling options play a very important role. You can stretch small images and automatically scale down big pictures to fit the screen, but many more options are available, so it all comes down to how much time you're ready to spend setting up the program.

Background places an icon in the System Tray too, and a single right-click shall be enough to manually change a desktop background.

What's more, the app works flawlessly on all Windows versions and doesn't hamper system performance, which means that it can be safely installed on both older and newer systems.

Overall, Background does its job, but it may all prove to be too difficult for rookies. A more user-friendly approach is always recommended, so further improvements in this regard could only help the app attract a larger audience.
