Once you configure it to use 'Stretch' and reboot, the wallpaper will be black.
It appears that this setting is no longer honored after installing the KB4534310 update and any configured wallpapers that use it, will just show a blank black screen.īleepingComputer was able to reproduce this bug and when using any other picture position, the wallpaper properly shows.
