  1. Lock Screen slideshow and screen saver option not working


    I wanted to set an image folder for the lock screen and screen saver not the same folder, but as soon as I close the options window thinking it has saved everything, It resets back to my actual image and no screensaver at all...I tried to move the image folders from the external HDD to my main HDD but nothing has changed. My desktop images works fine both with slideshow and single images, but I cannot figure out how to set lock screen and screen saver. How do I fix that? Thanks.

    :)

    screen saver, NOT the lock screen

    Go Personalization, Lock Screen and at the bottom is Screen saver settings. This is not the Lock screen Slideshow.
