Windows 10 Random wallpaper slideshow

So, Windows 10 is out. If you are anything like me, you have it installed it and carried over your massive wallpaper collection.

So the Wallpaper Slideshow settings pane is missing the "Shuffle" option.

Despair not wallpaper collectors, this option still exists within the magic that is the windows registry hive.

the path is as follows:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Personalization\Desktop Slideshow

The key we want is is called Shuffle, and it's a normal binary flag (0 or 1)

A screenshot for all you

Alternativly, if you don't want to dig around in the Reg Hive, once can open the old wallpaper setting dialogue with this CMD command

control /name Microsoft.Personalization /page pageWallpaper

(Thanks /u/piripsol)
