Wallpaper changes for a second, then goes back to default Windows wallpaper

[Randomaker]

Description

Hello! I recently started having an issue with Auto Dark Mode not changing my wallpaper correctly. I did upgrade to Win 11 recently, I don't remember if this problem started happening at the same time or not. I have a different wallpaper set in AutoDarkMode light and dark. However, whenever the theme switches, either manually or automatically, it shows the correct wallpaper for a fraction of a second before switching back to whatever wallpaper is set in Windows settings. I'm not sure if this is because I have something set incorrectly on my side or if it's a bug, but it used to work perfectly fine.

I have the exact same problem on my Windows 11 machine. In my case, it never worked as intended.

Similar problem, but in my case, the wallpaper will be stuck on the previous wallpaper and will not switch automatically unless I manually click the check box to switch pictures (it seems that this will call up the function).

this is a known issue that should be fixed in the beta version, see #800

I have the same problem and also, since I use multiple desktops, the theme seems to alternate, very strange. (Right now I'm using the dark theme and all settings are correct)

Edit: I also think it's because of the new Windows update, but I'm not 100% sure.

I think the issue with multiple desktops is tracked in #469.

Sorry for the delayed update, but we are really trying to get it as fast as possible out.
