what is the difference in wallpapers and screensavers.?

Answer 1

Wallpaper is the background that sits on your desktop with your icons all over it. Screensaver comes on when you have been idle for a designated period of time.

Answer 2

Right after you turn your computer on what is the first thing you see when you look at your computer screen? That is your computer desktop. It may be a solid color... have Bill Gate's Windows Cloud picture... this is called "wallpaper". Well... that depends on who you ask... no one "needs" wallpaper for their computer to run... but many of us need it just to have something nice... something that we enjoy looking at.
A program which automatically displays a moving picture or pattern on the computer screen after the computer has been idle for a certain period of time. If the keyboard or mouse is touched, the working desktop screen returns. The original purpose of a screen saver was to prevent a fixed image from being burned into the phosphor of the screen, by darkening the screen and displaying moving images. Screen burn is less likely to occur with current monitors, and would take many hours.
A screensaver is a computer program originally designed to conserve the image quality of computer displays by blanking the screen or filling them with moving images or patterns when the computers are not in use. Today, screensavers are primarily for entertainment or security purposes.
