HP Laptop 17-ca1

I have never owned a computer before. At age 86, I have purchased an HP laptop. When I turn the computer on, a beautiful photo appears on the screen. The photo changes every few days. This morning a beautiful photo of the Taj Mahal appeared. Is there a way I can save that photo and make it the photo that will ALWAYS appear when I turn the computer on. I am not sure what operating system is on this computer. How can I find out? (think it is a type of Microsoft 10)  I am determined to teach this old dog new tricks!

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.

 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:  

  1. In Windows, search for and open Background image settings. You can also right-click an open area of the desktop and then select Personalize.

  2. To change the image or color that displays in the background, select Picture, Solid color, or Slideshow from the drop-down menu. Click Browse to select one of your pictures or a picture folder for a slideshow.

    Background and color options

  3. To change the way the picture displays on the background, select Fill, Fit, Stretch, Tile, Center, or Span from the drop-down menu.

    Changes take effect immediately.

Change text color, background, border appearance and more in Windows 10.

  1. In Windows, search for and open Themes and related settings. You can also right-click an open area of the desktop, and then select Personalize.

  2. In the Personalization window, select Background, Colors, Lock Screen, Themes, Fonts, Start, or Taskbar to open the corresponding settings window.

  3. Adjust the settings.

    Changes take effect immediately.
