Hi,
When I try set a different wallpaper on each monitor I only have the option to set on monitor 2
Doesn't matter how I get there, (win 10 settings or control desk.cpl,,@background) the only option is monitor 2
Windows 10 PRO Build 10586.164
Nvidia GeForce GT610 10.18.13.5891
TIA
Richard
Hi eyesofedgar and welcome to Ten Forums!
Could you tell us how you have your monitor configuration setup? (e.g connected via VGA, HDMI)
Also make sure you check NVIDA's website to make sure you have an up-to-date graphics driver for Windows 10 Pro.
Have you tried both options? (i.e clicked on first and second 'monitor 2' option)
Have good look in your NVIDA control panel/graphics settings to see if you can configure multiple monitors somewhere in there.
The problem sounds to me either like a driver problem or something is wrong with the way the multiple monitors have been configured.
ellellell1,
sorry for the delayed reply!!
Acer S230HL on HDMI
Dell E173FP on VGA
Nvidia drivers updated to 10.18.13.6472
Tried clicking all options and results are the same, identical images on both monitors
Anyone know of any hidden registry setting / tweaks that may be of use?

Yep that's pretty weird. Could be a bug in Windows 10 possibly.
Have you tried to setup multiple monitors in you NVIDA control panel?
Seems that it could be something in your registry...
Anyone know the path for this particular option?
Unfortunate I don't know the path so I can't help you in the registry but I would further suggest to see if uninstalling and reinstalling the monitor drivers fix's this? Also maybe try to download a freeware program, compatible with Windows 10 that assists in arranging multiple monitors?
I gave up a long time ago trying to get windows to deal with multi monitor Wallpaper and went with the free Johns Adventures
Will save an awful lot of problems
