Using Bing Wallpaper app
Support for Internet Explorer ended on June 15, 2022, and Microsoft is proposing a replacement browser, called Edge, introduced in 2015, which, in addition to advanced features, displays a new wallpaper image every day, similar to the LockScreen function.

Windows 10 updates
Windows 11 updates
Both apps work similarly, but the Bing Wallpaper app can be installed separately, containing a collection of beautiful images from around the world. Like the application built into Windows, you can see a new desktop image every day.
Quick Tip: It is supported by Internet Explorer 11, Microsoft Edge 74 or later, Chrome and Firefox.
Good to know:
A.) – Bing Wallpaper is installed in the C:\Users \ username \AppData \Local \Microsoft \BingWallpaperApp folder. The images are stored in the WPImages folder.
(Under the username above, enter the computer name (in this example: John John) that you specified during installation).
B.) – AppData is a hidden folder, so if you want to see the content and images, you must first make it visible.
Open a folder on your computer (any) and click the View button in the top menu bar, then click the Show link in the drop-down menu. Finally, in the next small window, click the Hidden items button.
Let's begin:
To use the Bing Wallpaper application, to automatically change the daily desktop wallpaper in Windows 11, follow these steps:
1.) – Click the following link to open the Microsoft Bing Wallpaper website. Click the Get the app link at the top of the webpage to download the app (note: if you scroll down, you'll find more download buttons).
2.) – Click on the icon of the downloaded BingWallpaper.exe program, and run the installation file.
3.) – During installation, clear the Set Bing as home page check box, and Set Bing as default search (if prompted) to use only daily Bing images as your desktop wallpaper, and then click Install Now.
4.) – Click the Finish button when the installation is complete. The desktop background automatically changes to the current daily image.
A.) – You can now click on the Bing Wallpaper notification icon on the taskbar.
B.) – In the top row of the notification window, you can find out where the image comes from.
C.) – Click the left < or right > arrows to change the wallpaper.
Uninstall Bing Wallpaper application:
The program does not have its own uninstall function, so you must use the uninstall option built into Windows. Press the Windows -Logo + R keys on the keyboard at the same time, then enter the control panel command in the search box that appears. In the Control Panel window that appears, click the Programs link (or: Programs and Features).
In the new window that appears, right-click on the Bing Wallpaper program name. Select Uninstall from the pop-up menu that appears, and follow the instructions to delete it permanently.
