Maybe not a GIF. And the term of art is 'wallpaper'. Is it running 7 or 10?

If you remember, back in 2007, Microsoft had released a tool called Windows DreamScene for the Ultimate edition of Windows Vista. With the help of DreamScene feature, one could set a video or animated GIF as wallpaper in Vista.

As we all know, the DreamScene feature was officially not available for Windows 7 or is not present in the latest Windows 10 operating system as well. Third-party utilities were released to enable DreamScene in Windows 7, but those tools are not compatible with Windows 10.

So, if you want to set your favorite video as wallpaper in Windows 10, you have no option but to go for third-party software. There are few applications out there that can help you set a video as desktop background in Windows 10. But the new Plastuer is probably the best software out there to set video as wallpaper in Windows 10.
