Windows 11 Settings, Personalization, Background page. A row of small pictures is shown. The picture you want to use is circled in red, and the Personalize your background menu is above it.

  1. Click Start, then Settings (the gear), then Personalization. A quick way: right-click an empty spot on your desktop and click Personalize.
  2. Click Background.
  3. Next to Personalize your background, make sure it says Picture.
  4. Click a picture you like. To use one of your own, click Browse photos and choose it. Your desktop changes right away.

You can change it as often as you like.
