Big Update | Fix Wallpaper Alive not showing icons and covering whole desktop

Now that you are here
I guess you have encountered the same issue
SO the thing is when u open wallpaper alive it covers your whole desktop
This happens because of multiple desktops (which can be accessed by pressing Win+Tab)
The problem is that the application cannot determine on which desktop it has to change the wallpaper and as a result it rather covers the whole desktop and icons
Now to fix this
*Just remove other desktops by pressing (Win+Tab) and removing all of the extra desktops
(you should have no multiple desktops to make this application work properly)

I don't have multiple desktops and still have this problem after I've made a fresh installation of windows 11

Nope, still doesn't work here. It's like an image (or a gif) that can be resized and the icons are behind it. The taskbar is shown below as normal but the "wallpaper" is just an image on top of the desktop. Help pls? :(
