  1. Lock screen keeps coming up, even though all settings turned off.


    After most recent windows 10 update, my computer will go to the lock screen after 15 min of inactivity. I have checked all power settings, screen saver settings and it set to never turn off when it is plugged in or on battery. Prior to the update, it was working as it should. Has this happened to anybody else? Any way to resolve this?

    :)

    Lock Screen keeps changing

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    Windows Spotlight picks the photos from Bing and displays them in the lock screen. I understand that you have set a picture and it is getting changed automatically.

    I suggest you to follow the steps to select the Picture that you want to be displayed on the lock screen. Please follow the steps mentioned below to set a Picture to lock screen:

    1. Press and hold Windows + I key on the keyboard to open settings.
    2. Click on Personalization.
    3. Click on Lock screen.
    4. Click on the drop down under Background and select
      Picture.
    5. Click on Browse and select the picture that you want to set.

    Hope it helps.

    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.
