Windows 10: Please provide option to display Lock Screen Wallpapers on Desktop

It's a real shame that I can't use the awesome wallpapers that was used for the lock screen whenever I see a good one before I log in.


I would love to see such feature implemented in the Display Settings to show the Lock Scren Wallpapers inside the Desktop.


Can Microsoft devs please implement this for the future updartes?


I know there are workarounds for this, but it's very cumbersome.

Hi Subhadeep,

Windows Spotlight is an option for the lock screen background that displays different background images and occasionally offers suggestions on the lock screen.
To turn off Windows Spotlight, go to Settings, clickPersonalization,
select Lock screen, under Background select a different lock screen background.

To avoid messages on your lock screen, you can consider the following:

• Make sure that the "Get fun facts, etc" on your Settings is turned off.
  
• Disable “suggestions” that appear as notifications. To do so, follow these steps go to
  Settings, then select System, then click
  Notifications & actions and turnoff “Show me the Windows welcome experience after updates and occasionally when I sign in to highlight what’s new and
  suggested”.
• Disable “tips, tricks, and suggestions”. Head to Settings then select
  System, then click Notifications & Actions and disable the “Get tips, tricks, and suggestions as you use Windows” option.

Don't hesitate to reply on this thread if further assistance is needed.

 

I can't change my lock screen photo on My Windows 10 Desktop PC.

This is something to do with the image file itself. To further isolate your concern with your lock screen customization, we’d like to know the following:

• If you already updated your display drivers.
• The pixel dimension of your image.
• The format of the image you’re trying to set as lock screen wallpaper.
• Troubleshooting steps you’ve done so far.

Can you upload the image you are trying to set as your lock screen wallpaper? We will replicate this to our end and see if this is an isolated issue or not.

We’re looking forward to your response.
