    Lockscreen showing ghost images of my desktop


    Hi,


    since a few days I have problems with my windows lock screen. It seems like some windows I opened recently are shown on the lock screen very faintly. I see this as a privacy issue so I would like to remove it.

    It's no a display issue. After leaving the lockscreen, the ghostimages disappear.

    In this particular case the application seems to be Telegram.


    Thank you for your help. Kind regards.

    :)

    lockscreen images

    When I first started using my laptop, it showed different types of images on my lockscreen. I liked as I get to see a new image every time. But my brother has set a stupid image as lockscreen image. Now I can do nothing but to settle with the images I have
    in my laptop. Can anyone please help me with this.

    Lockscreen showing ghost images of my desktop

    I have a second "ghost" desktop in Windows 10. I do not know where or when it appeared and cannot get rid of it. How do I get rid of it?

    Recently, a "ghost" desktop has appeared on my computer. It shows a list of a number of website tabs behind my desktop icons. Clicking on the exit "X" does not get rid of it. Nothing seems to get rid of it. Can anyone suggest a solution?
