  1. Setting Up a Slide Show on the Lock Screen


    Windows wants me to "Choose albums for your slideshow." Under which there is a box to pick that says, "Add Folder." Where is the appropriate place to find, place, or choose an album (folder) from which Windows can display and cycle through a number of pics? I have tried to set up "Folders" with pics I want in the slideshow in different places on the file tree, but Windows says it can't use these because they is in the wrong location. Perhaps there is a link to a 'slideshows for dummies' or something that could help me.

    :)

    problems in running slide show in lock screen


    Since switching to windows 10 from windows 8.2 I have had problems in running slide show in lock screen. The slide show will only operate when the screen timeout setting is set to 1 minute. All other time settings give a black screen at timeout. Am I missing something?

    I use the Lock screen but I do not use anything that can go with it such as slide shows or having aps appear on it. There is a setting in power for it maybe you should look at that in the CP??
