  1. Lock screen image disappeared?


    So when I first got this laptop in January, it came with Win10.

    I use high contrast all the time, and have installed various workaround extensions to help deal with my vision issues.

    Initially I used a workaround method I found on a forum to change my lock screen, even though it's in high contrast - which was to put the image I wanted into the web\screen folder and rename it. I did that.

    I had to reinstall Windows 10 due to a corrupted update file, and while my lock screen image is still the default, and even still visible in the lock screen customization screen when i'm in normal contrast - it's no longer in the web\screen folder, and I can't find it /anywhere/.

    Anyone have this issue? Also, I can't rename any of those files anymore to even begin to change it that way again.

    thanks in advance.

    :)

    WINDOWS 10 LOCK SCREEN IMAGE from the internet option.

    What is the file location of the Windows 10 lock screen image. The images that are delivered via the internet, which we can click like for on the lock screen.

    Also when I see a lock screen image that I like. How do I make that LOCK SCREEN IMAGE my computer wallpaper / background image ?

    Those are the default lock screen images that you can choose from. If the image that you're looking for isn't listed on the lock screen images, then click
    Browse, try searching for the image on your file library, and set it as your lock screen image.

    Keep us posted.

    You can find it in these folders:
    C:\Windows\Web\Screen
    C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\LockScreen_X
    C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Systemdata\???\ReadOnly

    And if that fail, you can read this
