Users who have got the change to play around with final version of Windows 8, then must have noticed that Microsoft has limited access to backgrounds of the start page. One can not use his own own custom background image for start page. Unfortunately, there is no built-in option to do that in Windows 8.
But, users who are interested in changing the background of Start Page of Windows 8 can use a beautiful tool named ModernBack Changer, a third party program that is fully compatible with the latest version of the Windows 8 operating system. You have to download the program from the developer website to your local system, extract the contents of the zip file and run it afterwards with administrative privileges. It is likely that you see a SmartScreen Filter protection prompt. Here you need to click on more info to run the program on the system.
The program displays all available backgrounds in its interface. To switch to one of Microsoft’s backgrounds, simply click on one to do so. Changes take effect immediately without restart or log off.
Users who want to use his custom background can click on the customize button to select a custom image for the background. Images will be automatically converted into 8-bit images, which means that high resolution imagery may not be the best option to select for the background.
Once you have selected the image you are asked to pick the part of it that you want to use as your background image. You move the red rectangle around by holding down the right mouse button. Just follow the process from here to apply the new background image.
Users are advised to create a system restore point and backup first before you use the program to modify the start page screen.
