Game stole my wallpaper
There is a point where the game changed my wallpaper. But it didn't change it back. Now I have to hope that I can finde my wallpaper again.

What if someone has a personalised foto as a background? If you don't have that one speciffic foto anymore you are more or less lost.

Nice feature but I wish I got asked.

You know how to change your wallpaper, right? Just do that. Also, you really want them to screw up a puzzle and awsk ywou swo twhey dwont hwurt ywour lwittle fweelings? Just change it back to what it was before like a normal person.

First I have to finde the Image again. Idk if and when where I still have it. But I have said that, if you can read.

Why so rude for no reason? Sounds like my comment was hurting your feelings. lol

Solution example:
They could have, like the color blind option that changes the remote-computer-puzzle at the bedinning, made it an option to allow or not allow to change the wallpaper. For example, they could have placed that image as a file on the desktop instead then.

I just had luck that I didn't had a "parsonally valuable" background like a personalised foto or something that is not so easy to restore if I don't have the original on my PC anymore. That has nothing to do with feelings. That's just a logical thought process.

Also is it, like I said, in it self a nice feature.

I am surprised that hava to explain all this.

It changes it back when it's no longer needed. If it hasn't, that's likely the result of a glitch and not intentional game design.

what was your original wallpaper anyway

Right click on your desktop -> personalisation -> it saves your last 4 wallpapers + the default windows wallpaper (on windows 10, no clue about 11)

A note I wrote to myself. (I had to rewrite it now.)

That's new with win10 then. I still use win8.1. There you have an "own designs" section with one "unsaved design". That's always the active one. (same as on win7)

Originally posted by FireFox6:
It should've changed your wallpaper back automatically once you no longer needed the hint (closing the game while it's changed would normally change it back too), I'm not sure what could have prevented that on your computer.
If you change something, the unsaved design gets "over written" because that's just what/how your active design currently is/looks like. When you want to change it back to another design you need to activaly change to that previously saved design.
I never saved a personal design though since I never changed my background when I didn't had to.

I guess the game just isn't 100% win8 friendly then.
I knew it sounded somewhat weird but I trustet the game that it has its ways and works as intended. (I though why else would they put that feature in the final game then.)

Changed it back for me. In any case, it's good practise to keep your wallpaper original file lying around somewhere convenient.

"also you failed on spelling". my fingers are flying over my keyboard. Sometimes so fast that even I can't follow them ;)
"WHY ARE YOU TYPING IN IT THEN" It's the language of the internet.
Star Treks universal translator doen't exist yet, sadly. When you want to comunicate to the international hive mind and not be limited to a small fraction of it that can speak your local language, you have mostly no choice but using the language of this international network to somehow convey your thoughts.
"also how does some one asking a question hurt someone's feelings" I don't know.
"Sounds like someone typing in baby language" that's why I asked.
"aka you're first language not understand" me not understand also.

In the ways you were using it in your post, the word should be "your", not "you're." A possessive adjective instead of a contraction of "you are."

In all three instances.
Husky understands also you have you're profile private what do you like 10000 hours on some dating sim? I don't want to even be rude you're just getting mad plus if you are typing don't fly your fingers :os_niko:

My profile's public, not sure what you're on about there. If you were intending to refer to my game library being private, I got tired of people sending me friend requests because "oh we play the same game, therefore we must be friends!" That got old pretty quick, so I resolved the problem.

Also, you got it half right this time, but the first "you're" should again have been "your," as a possessive rather than a contraction. You're getting closer, though! ;)

Is it an atampt of getting personal? Jokes aside. Why should my profile not be set to private? I see no reason to have it public. I could pull an uno reverse card and ask you why you look at my profile. I mean you can do, if you like. But what was your goal? What did you hope to find there?

Ah, don't wory. I didn't saw it as a rude comment. I mean I get why you think I'm mad, but I'm not mad. I have fun xD

Originally posted by 0braincells/ Your friend doge:

It was meant as a joke. But tbf, when trying to think about what to say, translating all that, trying to remember how to spell that (since, you know, english is somewhat of a different language in written form) and all that at the same time, with two and a half languages in your head, your hands can get confused. ... And my fingers tend to fly over the kayboard. Ok, yeah. IT's a bad habbit. It happens even in my native tongue.

Google is by far not a good universal translator. Yes, it can translate stuff and maybe it's the best tool we have. But have you ever tried to translate one and the same sentence back and forth over and over again? The meaning of what you initially wrote can change quite drastically. Not to mention using 3 languages in a circle.
It's fun but not really helpfull.
...
Btw would a "universal translator" mean that It doesn't matter which Language I use. It would just automativally get translatet into the native tounge of the viewer on their screen.
