Slow virtual desktop switching on windows 11
Hi, I recently joined the windows insider program and installed Windows 11. But since then, I am facing a significantly slow virtual desktop switching, compared to windows 10 (4 fingers slide ges...
I had the same problem on Windows 11, and I realized that the reason was that I had different Bing wallpapers on different desktops. I fixed this problem by going into Settings >> Personalization >> Background >> Recent images >> right-click on one of the images >> Click "Set for all desktops". After that, the desktop switching was finally back to normal.
I came here to post exactly this. I noticed switching between virtual desktops got slow just after I had set separate wallpapers on all 3 of my VDs, and as soon as I put the same wallpaper on all 3, the problem was gone. I would not advise having separate wallpapers on multiple VDs for this reason at this point. If anyone notices that this problem does not occur anymore in the future, feel free to let me know. 🙂
