    First, I'd like to clarify the terminology in my request, since when looking for solutions online people seem to tend to get what is being discussed. Pressing Win+L takes me to the "lock screen". At the lock screen, pressing any key or clicking the mouse takes me to the "sign-in screen", where I am asked for my password. The following setting is supposed to cause the sign-in screen to show the same image as the lock screen:

    When using a picture for my lock screen, everything works exactly as it should. The lock screen displays the correct picture, and the sign-in screen displays the same picture.

    My problem comes when choosing to display a slideshow on the lock screen. The lock screen itself correctly shows the slideshow, cycling through the images. The sign-in screen, on the other hand, does not display the slideshow; instead, it always shows whatever was previously chosen as the lock screen's background picture.

    Choosing a picture from the same folder as the slideshow as a background picture before changing to a slideshow does not fix the problem; it simply makes that predetermined picture the one that the sign-in screen is stuck on. Even if the lock screen's slideshow moves on to another picture, the sign-in screen will always go back to the same predetermined picture.

    Is there any way to get the sign-in screen to continue to display the lock screen's slideshow?

  3. Change signin screen to a certain image keeping lock screen slideshow?

    I have the option for 'Show lock screen background picture on the sign-in screen' enabled, but every time I get to the sign-in screen the only image that is ever displayed is the default 'beach from inside a cave' picture. My current settings are that it will choose images as a slideshow from a specific folder which definitely does not have the beach picture in it, and it works just fine for the lock screen itself.

    EDIT: I changed the lock-screen settings to only use a picture instead and it worked just fine, but now the lock screen only shows that image, not a slideshow, regardless of settings. Is having the sign-in screen as a slideshow even possible?
