Bing Wallpaper app - "Desktop click opens Bing" ignored...
Surely this bug is well known - it's been present for a month or so now.
Steps to reproduce. Toggle setting: "Desktop click opens Bing" On then Off.
Clicking the Desktop will open Bing - once.
Every day or so (it's hard to know), a desktop click also opens Bing.
Please fix Microsoft - it's a real PITA! :)
Cheers, Duncan.

Hello,
While there seems to be a bug based on your explanation, if your objective is to stop that behaviour, your best option is to uninstall the Bing Wallpaper app.
Win-X -> Installed Apps -> Bing Wallpaper -> Uninstall
For reference, I never had that installed, it didn't come as default installation for me in any computer.
Hope this helps.
Well here's the thing... I like the daily Bing wallpapers. They're awesome daily pics. I have no icons on my Desktop - that's they way I do Windows. 😄- so my background's quite important methinks.
So I'd like to keep it installed. It's a nice wee app and I don't mind that Microsoft put these "advertising/marketing" features in - so long as they provide the ability to turn 'em OFF.
So the "Hotspot Widget" and "Desktop click opens Bing" are new'ish features (came out pretty recently in an app update). It's great you can turn 'em OFF and so I have.
I just wish it'd work correctly! 😂🤗
My desktop, today 😁...
PS: I also use Microsoft's, Microsoft Launcher, on my Android phone - so I get the same background on my phone too. It's nice.
My phone, today...
