1: Yes the preview is running 2: Deskscapes is NOT paused 3: double clicking the indicated dream file, or applying it as the desktop background made no difference. The desktop will not run the animation. I have tried several. What IS ODD, is that one of the dreams (Hawaiian Sunset Cafe) had music and the music played, but the animation still was not working.
The problem I am having is that the animation is not running. It seems to have stopped in December. I can see the dreams downloading to my two computers via one drive. I can load the image to all monitors, but the animation never runs, so all I have is a static image. How do I fix that?
[quote who="etittel" reply="11" id="3810805"] WinKey works well on both of my Windows 11 Insider Preview test machines to bring up the Start10 menu. I read about the "shortcut" on TenForums/ElevenForums and lost little or no productivity to Start Menu changes. Nothing like the switch from Win7 to Win8, by a long, long, long shot. HTH, --Ed-- Windows Insider MVP 2018-2021 [/quote] That DOES Work! Even if the icon does not. </p
I can confirm that in Windows 11, the Start10 Icon only shows up on secondary monitors if that task bar is visible. After the update to W11, you may need to turn the secondary task bar back on. On my system it turned it off as part of the update. Also- Fences and Deskscapes 11 seem to work fine so far.
OK. I have FINALLY found the culprit. I don't know if this is a Windows 10 "Improvement" or not, or how it got activated, BUT it appears that "Offline Folders" was enabled on my system. This effectively copies your user directory to a local copy on your system in the ..\windows\CSC folder. This copy is controlled by the system, and not even you can read it. While those files are there, you cannot tell in windows explorer that they are no longer in the User fold
Thanks. NO, Mapping the drive does not work in relation to installing new Deskscapes items from within Deskscapes. Can I map the drive letter and add it to the folder list, sure. But that is not the issue. The issue is I cannot download and install a new Deskscape fom the "Online" tab inside of deskscapes. When I do, it proceeds to "Download" (Heaven knows where) the file. Then, instead of allowing me to Apply the deskscape, it shows me this:
I have used Deskscapes at work for a long time. Recently our network forced all user directories to migrate to the network drive rather than to default to local folders in user profile. With the latest versions of Deskscapes, when I download an animated background, it does not copy to the domain mapped users folder, so it does not run after being downloaded, and does not show up in the interface after closing the Deskscapes UI. If I try to download the file again in the UI
