Settings dialogs.
Working with John's Background Switcher is easy. In the main window, you can select sources, display method, set the update frequency, log in to source sites, configure behavior for secondary monitors. Additional settings are available in a separate dialog box by clicking the "More ..." button, where you can configure almost anything your heart desires. Maybe you want a 3-month calendar on your desktop, apply a sepia effect, add exclusions to previously favorite folders, assign hotkeys, or areas of the screen without wallpapers - it's all there. If this is not the case, write to the author, he says that he will add!

If you do not want the program to go online, just remove all network resources from the list of image sets (main window) and uncheck the "Check for updates" settings option (under the "More ..." button).
Installation - removal:
John's Background Switcher is completely free and works on Windows 10 and 11 versions. It requires Microsoft.NET 4.8 to work, if not, the installation wizard will download and install it for you. During the installation process, you can choose additional options: install for everyone, shortcuts, English help and languages. If you have one of the previous versions of the program installed, just run the installer and it will update the program without having to uninstall your version! The program's uninstaller cleans all John's Background Switcher components from your computer without leaving a single trace.
What's new:
New:
Added .hif file extension as a supported image format.
Added license information for ImageMagick (which JBS now uses) to the help file.
Bug Fix:
Fixed large image zoom in Windows 11 Insider Preview.
Fixed transparent PNG images with large annoying black rectangles on the edges of shapes.
About portable version:
You can also use the portable version of JBS in case you are unable to run the installers on your system. Note that when using the portable option, JBS will not be able to change the lock screen unless you run the JBS application as an administrator with the "DoSetupStuff" (without quotes) command line option, which the installer does. The portable version is not actually portable, as the program is written into the operating system.
About Licensing:
While JBS is completely free to use, it is possible to purchase a license and proudly show your support. You can choose how much you'd like to pay, and if you've ever donated to JBS let me know and I'll send you a free license. You can buy a license by clicking the button below or directly from JBS
