  1. My lock screen background changes to default when I log in


    Hello. Can you please tell me how to make the background of the login screen not change to the standard one? This only happens when you reboot or turn off fast startup, as in the video. On normal startup with quick launch, I can see my background. I have a Microsoft account, and I also disabled signing into windows using a pin code via netplwiz. The problem arose after enabling auto-login without entering a pin code. Please watch my video.https://1drv.ms/v/s!AlOAji17B3dZhwEb5hQYzpXmIvnY

    How to change background settings of the log in screen specifically?

    How to change background settings of the log in screen specifically. NOT the lock screen, I've disabled the lock screen in the group policy, which locks the lock screen settings. If I have the "show lock screen background picture on the sign-in screen" setting enabled, it just defaults to whichever picture is shown above in the preview for the lock screen.
    I want it to have current desktop wallpaper and follow the slideshow (so it's always the same wallpaper on the sign in screen and desktop).

    Lock Screen Background

    Hi Jean,

    It's possible that you are updating the wrong configuration setting. The
    Background
    setting under Windows Settings > Personalization will update the background picture that will be shown on your desktop where icons are placed. Meanwhile, the
    Lock screen setting will update the background picture that will be shown when you are logging in to your device.

    To update your Lock scren setting, kindly follow these steps:

    1. Press the Windows key to launch the Start menu.
    2. Type in Lock screen settings in the search bar and press
      Enter
      .
    3. Under Background, make sure the it is set to Picture.
    4. Click the Browse button.
    5. Locate the picture that you want to set as lock screen background and click
      Choose picture
      .

    If you continue to have this issue even after performing the above steps, please reply to this thread. The system will notify me so I can get back to you and provide you more answers.
