    Black Screen Of Wallpaper When Wallpaper is On External Drive


    This might be a specific question, however, I want to make sure my drive is ok. Up until about a week ago, I was using my wallpaper from an external drive. My pc started experiencing black screens on the desktop. I narrowed it down to it being the fact that it was on the drive. I switched to the local disk, and it started working. Everything on the drive is acting like normal. Should I be worried that it is a bad drive? Should I transfer the data to a different drive? Thanks!

    :)

    unable to change the lock screen Wallpaper.

    Hi,

    I appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down to the issue.


    • What is the exact issue that you are facing?

    • Are you facing issues while trying to change the lock screen Wallpaper?

    • Are you not able to choose the directory where the wallpapers has been saved?
    As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to restart the computer and check if you are able to successfully change the lock screen wallpaper.


    • From Desktop, right click and select
      Personalize      .

    • In Personalization window, click on
      Lock Screen       in the left pane.

    • And choose wallpaper you would like to apply for the lock screen by choosing the browse option.

    • Close the Personalization window.
    If the issue still persists, please do reply with the required information. We will be glad to assist you.

    Thank you.

    Background Wallpaper

    Hello Svetlana,



    I think you did not get what I ask about wallpaper, I have mentioned that is it possible to set the background wallpaper at home screen and menu list screen not the LOCK SCREEN. I know for lock screen wallpapers can be set. In windows phone 8 we can set
    only black and white background for home screens. I don't know what Microsoft has think to put such thing in mobiles. At least wallpapers supposed to be there for HOME SCREENS.
