Windows 11 Deskop error
I'm trying to setup a second desktop on Windows 11, but any alterations I make in my new window #2 also affects the original window #1, including changing the background or adding or removing icons...

Deleted Didn't know there was a choice. How do I do that?
- DeletedSep 19, 2021Unfortunately there is indeed an error !
After adding a user only some settings are synchronized - Unfortunately !- jimthomSep 19, 2021Copper Contributor

I'm confused. I don't want to add another user. I just want to add additional desktops as advertised. For example, one for games, another for tools, and another maybe for news. According to the how-to videos its very straight forward and simple. But I can't get it to work. Why are the setting, taskbar, multiple desktop options greyed out (show my taskbar on all displays, when using multiple displays show my taskbar apps on)

Of course I was talking about adding a user to Windows - if you already have another account you can add it as a new user and all system settings can be personalized for each account differently.
And on the start screen you will have two accounts to choose from.
