Alongside a plethora of new features and changes, the Windows 10 Creators Update is also adding the new default hero wallpaper. The new background is very similar to one found in the Anniversary Update, but the one bundled in the Creators Update is a digital version, instead of a picture.
The new hello wallpaper already appears in the latest Insider preview builds and it’s located in C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper\Windows, the name of the image is img0.
If you can’t wait to get the new background image with the new update, you can download it now using this link from DeviantArt.
The zip package contains the default hero wallpaper for the Windows 10 Creators Update in nine different resolutions, including:
- 768×1024
- 768×1366
- 1024×768
- 1200×1920
