    How to Display the File Path of Images Displayed by the Lock Screen Slide Show?


    We enjoy viewing the random images in the “Pictures” folder using the Lock Screen Slide Show. Unfortunately with thousands of images finding the one displayed can be impossible. Is there a method, tweak, or app to superimpose the path to the image being displayed? Or a keyboard shortcut to freeze the slide show and display the image’s path?

    :)

    screen saver slide show not showing file path or name while screen saver runs

    We upgraded from XP. In XP when the screen saver was showing photos it listed the photo title and path to where the photo being displayed was located. Is there a way to turn this on in Windows 10? I have been searching for months now and can not find
    a setting allowing this to happen.

    Will the Windows 10 screen saver display file names and path as it displays photos?

    Thanks.

  3. Ads displayed in Lock Screen

    Hi Subhadeep,

    Windows Spotlight is an option for the lock screen background that displays different background images and occasionally offers suggestions on the lock screen.
    To turn off Windows Spotlight, go to Settings, clickPersonalization,
    select Lock screen, under Background select a different lock screen background.

    To avoid messages on your lock screen, you can consider the following:

    • Make sure that the "Get fun facts, etc" on your Settings is turned off.
    • Disable “suggestions” that appear as notifications. To do so, follow these steps go to
      Settings, then select System, then click
      Notifications & actions
      and turnoff “Show me the Windows welcome experience after updates and occasionally when I sign in to highlight what’s new and
      suggested”.
    • Disable “tips, tricks, and suggestions”. Head to Settings then select
      System, then click Notifications & Actions and disable the “Get tips, tricks, and suggestions as you use Windows” option.

    Don't hesitate to reply on this thread if further assistance is needed.

    Lock Screen Image Does Not Display as Login Screen

    This question concerns the background image for the sign-in screen. The sign-in screen definitely "knows" the user's preferences and options. For instance, it "knows" the user picture that is displayed in the circle above the user name on the sign in screen.

    Under "settings->personalization->lock screen" there is an option to browse for a background picture. Under that is the option to "Show lock screen background picture on the sign-in screen". By sliding this to ON (which I have done) the lock-screen background
    is supposed to be displayed as the background on the sign-in screen.

    This works on other accounts I have on the same computer. But it does not work for this account.

    Is there something that I can do in addition to what I have done to get it to start working?
