Microsoft had been trying to improve its reputation among Windows 11 users by promising operating-system improvements, including better efficiency on systems with 8GB of RAM.
According to a report from Wccftech, some Windows 11 users are now reporting a different kind of change: a full-screen advertisement appearing through the Bing Wallpaper app. The ad promotes a collection of Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films and uses the desktop wallpaper experience as advertising space.
The reported promotion has drawn attention because it follows Microsoft's earlier promises to improve Windows 11. The source describes the move as a setback for those improvements, with the company appearing to use a feature associated with desktop customization to display promotional content.
The report also notes that users need the Bing Wallpaper app for this approach to affect them. That requirement limits the scope of the report, but it does not change the central complaint: Windows 11 users who use Bing Wallpaper are encountering a full-screen film advertisement on their desktops.
