    How to "silence" the lock screen in Windows 10


    The lock screen in Windows 10 is showing random pictures. That is nice. However sometime the screen does also show questions and other hints that ask for my attention. How can I "silence" those questions? Iin other words: is there a way not to to be asked about anything in the lock screen, even if the price should be not to receive a variety of pictures?

    Thank you for any help

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
