  2. changing the background images

    Hi,

    In order to help you better, could you please confirm a couple of things.

    • Have you made any changes on the computer prior to the issue?
    • Are you referring to desktop background image or lock screen image?

    I suggest you to follow the below steps to change the background picture and check if it helps.

    • In the search type as ‘Settings’ and click on it.
    • Select ‘Personalization’, under ‘Background’ option select as ‘Picture’.
    • Under ‘Choose your picture’ select any picture accordingly or you can browse the picture from your computer.

    You may refer to the below link and check if it helps.

    Location for windows 10 installed background image files


    Hi. Since updating to win 10 creator, I can no longer find the image files that windows offers to customise the desktop background. I used to personalise them by photoshopping my family into the scenes but the files now seem to be hidden. Incidentally, I was blown away by the stuff Stephanie has done and has got me thinking about starting from scratch, but one step at a time
