This is on Windows 8.1.u1 x64 Professional with 3 monitors (3-1-2). Monitor 1 is my primary monitor and is a touch screen. My wallpapers are set up as monitors 1 and 2 span one wallpaper and monitor 3 is a separate wallpaper. The wallpapers change every 15 minutes and are stored on my local drive.
When the wallpapers change, they steal focus from whatever I am doing.

Strange! That's an old issue that we had fixed ages ago. Not sure why it might have crept back in. If you disable the "Use transitions..." option in the Wallpaper Settings window, does it still steal focus when it changes?

This option is not selected on any of my wallpaper settings.

Ok, interesting. Are there specific applications that seem to lose focus when the wallpaper changes? Or is it all applications? I can't reproduce the issue here.

This appears to have stopped occurring. It was happening if I was typing an email via Outlook 2013 at the time the wallpapers changed on their 15 minute cycle. But since Tuesday and the MS Hotfix installations, I have not had it happen. For now, let's just not spend any of your valuable time on it....unless I can get it to happen some more.
