  1. Blank Windows Spotlight?


    The "Windows Spotlight" background feature that changes itself by day, which was working perfectly fine for me a few days ago, now shows this:

    Blank Windows Spotlight? 98c11052-167c-4886-bf98-8d1c72e1ebc6?upload=true.png

    Other options work just fine.


    Is my "Windows Spotlight" stopped working? I don't know if this happens on other PCs, since it is internet based.

    :)

    Hi Leland,

    Windows Spotlight is a nifty feature in Windows 10. It can downloads pictures and advertisements from Bing and then displays them on your lock screen. Besides, you can mark whether you wish to see more or less images of a similar type.

    To sort out your concern, simply follow the steps provided below:

    • Go to privacy settings:
    • Background apps turn on
    • For spottlight setting app must be on.
    • You can now use spottlight in personalisation tab.

    We also suggest to re-register your Windows Spotlight by following the steps provided by

    Should you need further information, don't hesitate to contact us.

    Regards.
