  1. Lock Screen


    I have my lock screen set to Windows Spotlight. I have been getting beautiful lock screen pictures until the last couple of days. Instead of the typical windows lock screen photos I normally get, which change with every log in, I am getting just a picture of the moon. That has been my lock screen photo for the last few days, consistently. What happened? How do I get back those great photos for my lock screen? I am completely over the moon pun intended.

    :)

    Setting the timeout for Lock Screen

    • Press Windows + I and select personalization.
    • Select Lock screen.

    • Select the Screen Timeout setting.
    • Select the time of timeout you need and check.

  3. Lock vs Login screen screenshot

    You can use your own image of any background and just go to settings/personalize/lock screen and click on browse as in the image below. It should make whatever picture you use as the Lock Screen

    Lock vs Login screen screenshot

    Hi Josey -

    Thanks for the quick reply. While your suggestion does change the sign in process, it doesn't address the differing screenshot question. Following the steps doesn't make the login screenshot the same as the Lock screenshot. As I mentioned, I can't even find the screenshots being used for both screens.

    Still looking a solution to this. Open to any other suggestions you might have to the problem. Thanks!
