Windows 10: No Screensaver

Hi folks, despite setting up my screensaver to show a slideshow of my pictures like I did in Windows 7 it will not start. Also the computer does not shut down even though I've set it to turn off after an hour.
Not life or death but irritating.

Windows 10 Screen Saver

I have had a problem with screensavers since I upgraded? to windows 10. but at least I used to have screensavers. Now, suddenly, I have no screensaver at all. Just a black screen? I can't even access screensavers. when I search my pc there are zero results
for screensavers????? Not Happy.

 

Windows Screen Saver is set to show some personal pictures but creates issues when idle for 8 - 10 hours.

Hello John, I’m Virginia an independent advisor here.

Is the problem with all, some or one screensaver?

Are the affected screensavers Microsoft ones?

The screensaver feature is being depreciated so the error may be part of that.

I have the same when using the Photos screensaver, however my third party screensavers are fine.

I await your reply.

 

Would you believe it, minutes after posting the screensaver kicked in and the pc shut down. Just by reading an old thread and disconnecting my controller. Result!
