Windows 10: How do i permanently delete Windows Spotlight?

After the latest windows update which I was forced to do I now have this stupid "learn about this picture" icon appeared. Researching I found this is to do with Windows Spotlight.I don't want windows spotlight. I don't need windows spotlight and as far as I'm concerned windows spotlight is by definition a virus on my system installed without my consent and impossible to remove it seems. I never agreed to install this quite frankly useless to me piece of software and it is messing up my other desktop backgrounds that i prefer to use.I want to permanently delete it from my system but so far

:)

Yes friend all these steps working for me.check these path , first path for check : C:\Windows\Web\Screen (find the stuck image and rename it) , or second path " C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\SystemData\ " at this path you will se two main folders check all these folder at all and you will find the image there.Rename or delete the image stuck only.After re-register again the spotlight and wait after some restart.Something last i had the same problem and delete the registry folder "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\Creative\S-1-5-21-1367095634-179868200-954147944-1001" and do a restart after all these step the spotlight download again new images and start working again.Please make a backup first at register.before delete everything.
