    Lockscreen Win-Spotlight & Slideshow are not triggering after update 1803


    Since Update 1803, the slideshow and Windows spotlight do no properly start when the PC is locked or on inactivity.

    Before the 1803 update it was possible to set a Slideshow album, Picture or Windows Spotlight and with WIN+L or on PC inactivity it would switch to the lockscreen and run the pictures with the system time, weather-apps, etc. in the lower left corner.


    Since update 1803 the lockscreen slideshows ONLY trigger on first system boot. Afterwards, when the user uses WIN+L or waits for inactivity, the lockscreen displays only the first picture of Spotlight and no slideshow starts. The system time is not displayed anymore.
    Setting the lockscreen to Slideshow, the lockscreen will only show a blank screen and not start the slideshow and the system time is missing.
    User needs to select a picture from the slideshow album as Picture option first and switch back to Slideshow.
    Then, the lockscreen will only display this first picture and not start the slideshow.


    Additionally, after boot up, when the user uses WIN+L, it may happen that the system time and slideshow are working. BUT ONLY randomly. I found no pattern if this works on 2nd, 4th or whatever screen lock attempt.
    Most certainly, the slideshow and spotlight are not working when the PC goes inactive.

    Furthermore;

    Before 1803, when waking the PC from lockscreen, the user did not need to enter his PW in case the lockscreen was triggered by inactivity. Only if the user used WIN+L the start the lockscreen.

    After 1803, the PW is needed in both cases.


    This really bother me Lockscreen Win-Spotlight & Slideshow are not triggering after update 1803 ;)

    Lockscreen wallpaper (windows spotlight) on desktop

    It is called windows spotlight.

    In order to set them to your lockscreen go to where you change your wallpapers, select slideshow and choose windows spotlight.

    There are ways to save the current wallpapers to use as your desktop and for other purposes. (as long as it is legal)

    Lockscreen will not show Windows spotlight pictures

    Switching to a picture does nothing on the lockscreen, login screen does show the image. If I change to a slideshow it does show the images, then the login screen shows the image in the preview in settings. Switching back to Spotlight leaves me with
    a black lockscreen with the text again...really don't want a slideshow

    Considering the question actually mentions 'Windows Spotlight' this is hardly going to move things forward.
