I can confirm this on Windows 10 and 11.
It is still happening on telegram-desktop-3.2.3, on Arch Linux... This is getting really annoying. I need to uncheck the 'Chat backround > Tile backgound'-setting every f*****g time there's an update.
It seems that every update inverts this setting. I'm on Win10, and use a tiled chat background, and after every update TDesktop reverts this to a stretched instead of tiled background.
This is a really annoying issue. I can confirm the same here.
Same for me, very annoying really.
@yurikoles @cyberpunkrocker-zero which wallpaper are you using that gets the "Tile background" enabled after an update?
Also, can anybody reproduce that on a fresh install? Like, on Windows download some older portable version from https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop/releases unpack it to a clean folder and try to reproduce the bug.
Is it reproducible on a freshly unpacked old->to->new version?
@john-preston different wallpaper on different machines (desktop/laptop), and always one of my own images, never used any builtin one. Besides, I haven't noticed this happening recently any more, say, since about the introducion of 3.4.x series (currently using 3.5.0)
So, each time it was a custom chat background ("Choose image..." etc) and it was resetting from non-tiled to tiled?
I need details and reproduction steps because I suppose it is happening because of some legacy settings not being completely wiped / ignored after an update and they keep being read. There is very complex logic in migrating old settings to new settings when it comes to theming / chat background, because the things there changed significantly several times in the last several years.

That's correct.
In my case, I have the same background image (own one) on both Android and desktop (Win10), and it keeps happening on all updates, including the most recent a few days ago. for some reason, I also have this background image in the chat background chooser about 50 times.. so it seems to create a new theme entry each time I switch back to tiled..
For me the issue also happens with one of the default images (Choose from gallery) as background, with the 'blurred' option enabled. (Telegram Desktop on Windows 10)
@woomiez Ok, looks like it uploads each time as a new cloud background. For you it is resetting from tiled to non-tiled, right? (not like the previous reporter)
If you're on Windows:
Can you please check if it reproduces on a fresh portable version from a clean folder? Like, download portable version 3.5.0:
https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop/releases/download/v3.5.0/tportable-x64.3.5.0.zip
log in, set the desired background and try to autoupdate the app (it should update to 3.5.1), will the problem be reproduced?
@laikoni Can you provide details: which image exactly (there are mostly cloud-synced backgrounds, but there are some hard-coded to the binary with completely different handling in code), and do you try to keep it tiled / non-tiled and what value you get after the autoupdate?
Also, please check if it is reproduced on a fresh portable version from a clean folder, like I've described in the comment above.

yes. I want it tiled, and it resets to stretched.

I have done that, and the problem did not occur there.
This issue has returned for me on telegram 3.6.1 Windows 10. It does not appear to be present on Android v8.6.1 (2594) arm64-v8a.
Steps to reproduce:
lol why is this still an issue?
This is still happening for me
Happens on Windows 10, 4.2.4. x64.
This still happens on 4.3.1, annoying
It seems #5944 is mostly about this, so this apparently should be closed as a duplicate to have "still happens" messages in only one place.
Please check by updating 4.5.1 to 4.5.2.
Steps to reproduce
Expected behaviour
Tile background setting should be preserved.
Actual behaviour
Tile background is keeping enabled after every in-app update.
