HMS Wallpaper Changer Pro2.0

Customization can be an important feature of a computer, and it can simply start from changing the background picture. You’re surely aware that Windows allows you to have the wallpaper changed at regular intervals, but there are also third-party alternatives on which you can rely, and a suitable example is HMS Wallpaper Changer Pro.

Clean interface to quickly get you up and running

For starters, you can see if the application meets your demands from the moment download is done, because it’s not packed inside an installer. This means it can easily be carried around on a thumb drive to be used on other computers, but it’s recommended to check whether or not the target PC is fitted with .NET Framework.As far as the interface is concerned, the application keeps things simple, with a preview section displaying the selected picture, as well as a list where all items are available to you. There’s also a drop-down menu to specify the change interval, and the application can be minimized to the tray area once configuration is done.

Create a list of items and specify change interval

You first need to choose the pictures you wish to appear on your desktop background, and this needs to be done through a drag and drop operation. On the bright side of things, it’s possible to save the list of pictures in case you want to create multiple sets, and use them according to particular events or moods.Unfortunately, the list of configurations leaves much to be desired. The only thing on the plate is the possibility to specify change interval, which ranges from 30 seconds to every hour. There’s no option to change on logon, or set the position of the picture in case it’s smaller than the screen resolution.

On an ending note

All things considered, we can state that HMS Wallpaper Changer Pro comes with good intentions, but it’s not quite prepared to deliver the expected set of features. You only have control over the pictures to be used, and the interval, leaving the Windows default tool the better alternative.
