This article is for reference only. Wallpaper Wizard 2 is discontinued and will be sunset on March 23, 2026.

With Wallpaper Wizard 2, you can build a library of pictures and have them rotate across your displays at your chosen frequency and order. You can also refresh your desktop the traditional way — selecting a single picture as your wallpaper.

Add pictures to the Roll

Add a collection to the Roll

Open any collection and click Add to Roll ( The Add to Roll button ). You can add as many collections as you like from the Explore or Favorites tab.


Add a picture to the Roll

Open a collection, hover over a picture thumbnail and click Add to Roll ( The Add to Roll button ).

If you want a closer look first, click the picture, then click Add to Roll ( The Add to Roll button ) at the bottom.

Tip

If you don't see any buttons, click the picture to reveal the controls.

If the Roll is empty, adding a collection or picture starts the rotation immediately in its order. Otherwise, new items join the end of the queue.

Remove pictures from the Roll

Remove a collection from the Roll

  1. On the Roll tab, hover over any picture from that collection and click Open in collection ( The Open in collection button ).

  2. Hover over the checkmark button ( The checkmark button ) — when it turns into Remove from Roll ( The Remove from Roll button ), click it.

Set frequency of changing wallpapers

  1. On the Roll tab, click the gear button ( The gear button ).

  2. Drag the slider to set how often the wallpapers change.

    As you adjust frequency, the time until the next change appears beside Next Wallpaper.

Alternatively, go to the Wallpaper Wizard 2 Menu, click Change Frequency, then choose the desired option from the dropdown list.

Mix up pictures

To change pictures in the Roll in a random order, choose Roll > Shuffle in the menu bar or click Shuffle ( The Shuffle button ) on the Roll tab.

To restore the original sequence, either choose Roll > Shuffle in the menu bar or click Shuffle ( The Shuffle button ) on the Roll tab again.

Set permanent wallpaper

If you've found an excellent picture for the background and don't want any others, set it as a permanent desktop wallpaper.


Set a picture as permanent wallpaper

Open a picture and click Set Desktop Picture at the bottom.

If you have multiple displays, click the display number at the bottom to set the wallpaper there.

Wallpaper Wizard 2 will apply the picture and pause the Roll — your queue stays intact until you click Play ( The Play button ) again.


Set current picture in the Roll as permanent wallpaper

If the current picture in the Roll is one you want to keep for a while, pause the Roll by choosing Roll > Pause in the menu bar, or clicking Pause ( The Pause button ) on the Roll tab, or choosing Pause Roll in the Wallpaper Wizard 2 Menu.

To resume rotation, choose Roll > Play in the menu bar, or click Play ( The Play button ) on the Roll tab, or choose Play Roll in the Wallpaper Wizard 2 Menu.
