    Personalised Settings after Windows Update?


    I have Windows 10 v1607 on both of my PCs. I noticed after the last two cumulative updates that I get a grey box in the top lhs when logging into each account after the update saying "Setting up personalised settings for windows desktop update". This grey box appears against a black background for about 30s then then normal desktop loads and all is OK. Why has this behaviour started in recent updates?

    :)

    Personalised Settings

    When I set a specific Album Folder as my Background Slideshow, it defaults to the Pictures Folder - How can I fix this. It worked when I first installed Windows 10 ?

  3. Windows background folder keeps resetting to "pictures" instead of the folder I selected for the slideshow

    Hi,

    I have just started suffering from this problem - possibly since the last updates.

    After doing some testing, it appears to occur as soon as you leave the Personalisation Settings screen.

    If I take the following steps it appears to stay correct until I go to the Personalisation Settings screen again.

    1) Set up the theme as you want it in the Settings -> Personalisation - Themes -> Themes settings

    2) Close the Settings window

    3) Right click on the start button and select Control Panel

    4) In the control panel, go to Appearance and Personalisation and select Change the theme.

    5) Select your required theme.

    For me, it seems to work as I want it until I go to the Windows Settings -> Personalisation screen. The first time you go there it is set up correctly but on the second time it has reverted.

    Hope it works for you.

    Personalised Settings after Windows Update?

    Hi, I don't see that (same build- see my specs) and don't recall seeing such a report. Are you aware of this being a general problem?

    My desktop and laptops both show this behaviour on all accounts. I do use Classic Shell but the behaviour only began two updates ago.

    Install the Creator`s Update, then see if it still happens.

    Personalised Settings after Windows Update?

    Yes it does. I have Creators Update and I have seen the same 'Personalised settings' box after each of the last three or so cumulative updates. 1703, 15063.540. You see it for each user account the first time you log in after an update.
