Desktops talk to each other?

OK, it is a Windows thing but it originates on my iMac Boot Camp.
I changed my Boot Camp’s desktop to a screenshot from EverQuest, then today went to update my Dell laptop to Windows 11. I was very surprised to see that the desktop picture, previously the normal Windows 10 blue spheres, had changed to my Boot Camp’s picture; is this normal? Best Susan |

Handoff? I’m not sure if I have that on; if I do, it’s accidental, so must check. I do have Microsoft Remote Desktop on my MBPro but it tells me I have “no user account”. Could that be part of it? Mind you this is in the house, while my iMac is about 200feet away, at the top of the garden.

You probably have hand off turned on — I use handoff iPad to iMac and I can see husband’s powerbook because its on my itunes account as well.
