Select an image --> right mouse click --> Set as desktop background --> Crash!

Opus 9.5.1, 32-bit Windows 7. Repeatable.

It's a known problem, but it's a bug in Windows, not Opus :slight_smile:

Opus's own set-wallpaper command works, if you want a workaround.

(Put Properties SETWALLPAPER=menu into the context menu of the Images file-type group.)

If anyone's curious about the bug in Windows 7, the attached program + source reproduces it outside of Opus. ShellExecuteEx with the "setdesktopwallpaper" verb = crash.
