Windows 10: Screensaver system acting strangely.

1909 (OS Build 18363. 1316)

A couple of screensavers which I added a while ago no longer work.

In Screen Saver Settings two of those listed are no longer installed on the PC. If I select one of them, pressing Settings or Preview has no effect, I can't use that saver.

If I select the other one, the strange image shown in my previous thread appears






I have spent a lot of time searching for that image on the PC but can't find out where it is.

Is there some reset function in the system which won't mean having to re-install my many programs and files ?

Screensaver shortcut

I did this"
Search Results

I would suggest you to try the following steps and check if that helps.

• Go to the folder C:\Windows\System32 and sort by file type.
• Look for the screensaver file type (.scr).
• Find the file scrnsave.scr(you can choose any of the screensavers).
• Right click and select send to>desktop (create shortcut). The shortcut on my attachment, but when i click on it my screen goes off and on and nothing else.

 

Screensaver not intiating

No corruption. It’s weird, because it doesnt do it all the time. It can go for days without acting strange. Then the screensaver will not load. I will check for avaiable updates, most of the time there is. Sometimes there is not. Once an update is
made, the pc will go back to acting normal. If an update doesnt show at that time, there will be one at some point that day and the screensaver will continue to not work correctly.

 

Can't Remove Screensavers

Well since there is no way to uninstall the two screensavers I made it was suggested I uninstall the program. Unfortunately, even after uninstalling Axialis Screensaver, the screensavers I made are still listed. Not a big deal just wonder where the data is hiding? Normally they should of been created in the system32 folder but in searching none where found. *Mad
