Do none of them work? If you have an antivirus application installed, it might be blocking them (likely by mistake but I obviously cannot say that with certainty). Generally freezing issues like that are caused by antivirus applications but if you have only tested one wallpaper, it might also just be broken.

If none of them work and you have an antivirus application installed, it's because your antivirus is blocking them 99% of the time. Make sure that your antivirus ignores this directory:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\431960

Then restart your computer and verify the Wallpaper Engine files:

If it still does not work, try to uninstall your antivirus application completely, restart your computer and verify the Wallpaper Engine files again. It is very likely that the apps are being blocked because your antivirus is configured too strictly and often they are hard to configure correctly.

Maybe your apps just don´t run through Wallpaper Engine. I once experimented with the tool Simmetri and tried to run the result through WE. This didn´t work at first so i asked the developer about it. He then did some adjustments to Simmetri to make it work. :manthumbsup:
