slideshow issues

Alexanderoux · 23 Dec 2015

windows explorer image folder files do not cycle through all the images in file on slideshow (just cycle though 30-40 images and repeats)
How to change setting to cycle through all images in a file folder?
*not talking about screen saver or background image cyling.

Please advise help

Are they all of same type, .jpg, .gif etc ?

Are you trying to use subfolders? Those generally aren't well-supported.

Yes they are all .jpg files - they are in subfolders, not directly off "pictures" folder

Well, it reads files from one folder/subfolder at a time. You'll need some 3rd party program for more flexibility.

Ah, sorry I guess I wasn't clear. all images on single subfolder - up to win 8.1 there was no issue regarding slideshow from subfolder, once into win 10, doesn't work and I see no setting methods -like properties or preference adjustments.

You can use the old interface by running exactly:

control /name Microsoft.Personalization /page pageWallpaper

from a command prompt. Does it work there... ?
