I have been having this issue for a little while now. But I am unable to get the background image to show up on the little computer screen in Settings on my HP All in One touchscreen desktop. All of my other computers do not have the issue. Are there any ways to get it to appear again? A screen snip is included to show what I am referring to.Screenshot 2025-04-24 221456.webp

It probably shows for many people.

Jesse, Hi.
Have you tried changing the desktop image?
Check if the new background shows in Settings/Home and then change it back to the one you want.

You might need to restart explorer.exe after changing the background. Or log out and back in or Reboot.
