Lock Screen Background

Hi Jean,

It's possible that you are updating the wrong configuration setting. The
Background setting under Windows Settings > Personalization will update the background picture that will be shown on your desktop where icons are placed. Meanwhile, the
Lock screen setting will update the background picture that will be shown when you are logging in to your device.

To update your Lock scren setting, kindly follow these steps:

1. Press the Windows key to launch the Start menu.
2. Type in Lock screen settings in the search bar and press
   Enter.
3. Under Background, make sure the it is set to Picture.
4. Click the Browse button.
5. Locate the picture that you want to set as lock screen background and click
   Choose picture.

If you continue to have this issue even after performing the above steps, please reply to this thread. The system will notify me so I can get back to you and provide you more answers.
