Windows 11 could bring back an old feature for wallpapers from Windows Vista – and it's about time

• Windows 11 could give you the option to set a video file as your wallpaper
• The option has been spotted in a preview build of the operating system
• It would echo a similar feature that was available in Windows Vista

Windows 11 could give you the ability to set a video file as a wallpaper for your desktop, based on clues in testing.

Windows Central noticed that intrepid leaker, PhantomOfEarth, has again been diving into preview builds of Windows 11 and found the functionality to select a video file as a background.

You can see how it works in the below post on X, which shows an MP4 video being chosen as a wallpaper.
