How To Install

Simple and easy installation. Head over to the latest release and download the Source code (zip).

Once downloaded, unzip the DailyWallpapers-xxxx.x.xx.zip, open it until you reach the folder with the .exe


Adding to Startup

If you'd like, move the DailyWallpapers folder to your C:/ drive or your desktop. Open the folder with the .exe and create a shortcut to the .exe.

To add it to startup, press Windows Key + R, then type shell:startup. Drag and drop the shortcut you made into the startup folder.

Before launching the app, set it to run as administrator. To do that, right click the .exe, click Properties then head over to Compatibility and tick Run this program as an administrator

Why do I need to launch it as admin? This allows the app to download and set your wallpaper without any errors, such as missing permission to download or set wallpaper.

And that's it! You've downloaded and set the app to run on startup


Info

⚠️ There might be a chance that the Windows Anti-Virus deletes the file under the false threat of 'Trojan' virus. I assure you the program does nothing harmful, as you can see from the code in the master branch.
