Second monitor goes black

[sangy]

This only began recently but whenever I play games with a stretched resolution on my main monitor, the wallpaper on my second monitor would go black and it would sometimes cause wallpaper engine to crash if I alt tab back and forth. Anyone experiencing the same problem?

My main monitor is 2560x1440 and the second one is 1920x1080

Can you run our scan tool and share the log file the next time this happens to you?

It may be a bit annoying but that is probably the easiest way to find the source of the issue.

You seem to have crashes in Wallpaper Engine and the Windows Explorer caused by the Windows kernel, that's usually a good indicator that there is some underlying problem with your system. I would try to do a clean re-installation of your graphics card drivers (uninstall the current ones first and clear all settings). If that does not work, try to run the Microsoft System File Checker Tool:

If you cannot get rid of the issue, it may also be a hardware failure of some sorts, but it's really impossible to tell from my perspective.

Hey! I found the issue was that Wallpaper engine does not support cloning if one of your monitors is using HDR display. Check your "Duplicate or extend a display" windows setting, and try turning off your HDR mode. Hope this helps!
