Windows 10: Is there anyway to lock Personalization settings?

It's a pc at home; one account, administrator. My son continuously changes the Personalization settings (changes the background from "Stretch" to "Fit" among other things); is there any way to lock this setting? It was possible in windows 7 via a group policy, but changing the group policy now doesn't do anything, since personalization options are available through the new Settings app.

Is there anyway to know if File History is working?

That is a good idea. I'll use copy commands of one sort or another. They have differential options I can use. Ok. With BitLocker this will be good enough (I hope). I do rotate backups off site but I was taking backups that had erroneously led me to
believe they had backed up at a time that was past. I would suggest that Microsoft make the File History keep one copy of everything on the file history drive and then do it's other multi save stuff. Just as it should never delete that last copy after an
interval, it should at least have that one copy to restore. File History is disappointing.

Issue closed.

 

Is there anyway to know if File History is working?

No matter what is being touted, File History is less of a backup and more of a "oops rollback". ;-)



A backup would be to media external, disconnected at times and physically separated (geographically) if at all possible.



So, when you browse the file history - you don't see the files?

• 
  Type Restore files in the search box on the taskbar, and then select Restore your files with File History.
  
• 
  Look for the file you need, then use the arrows to see all its versions.
