Now you will need to change just one (1) of the measurements.Locate the Display resolution setting and make a note of this as shown below:.Right mouse click on the desktop area and select Display settings.I will now show you how to use Microsoft Paint to resize a photo for use as the desktop wallpaper for Windows 10 and also for Windows 7 and 8.
