Just downloaded MacOS Mojave and wanted to change my desktop to the nice new landscapes of the Mojave desert but when I go to system preferences and click on desktop and screen saver, it immediately closes that page and says there was an error, anyone else experienced this yet?
iMac, macOS Mojave (10.14)
So my problem with this was resolved! It was just a matter of having a dual screen plugged in, as soon as I unplugged it, everything worked fine. Not sure if youre using multiple screens or not but if you are, hope that works, if not, I have nothing else, sorry and cheers!

Hi. Tried the reset a couple of times, but no luck with Desktop and Screen Saver crashing. Same result as before: "There was an error in Desktop and Screen Saver preferences." Any other ideas I can try? Many thanks.
I have the same problem. Disconnecting any external displays doesn't help and i've even tried putting the .saver files into one of the 3 /Screen Saver/ directories without any success. It seems like a permissions issue and is a frustrating one at that 😟
Try resetting the NVRAM and then retest. Instructions are in:
Restart in Safe Mode then restart normally and re-test. Use safe mode to isolate issues with your Mac - Apple Support
Thanks for the tip. Safe Mode sorted it out, but the problem recurs with a normal boot. Will start going through login items looking for conflicts tomorrow. Good night.
