Windows 10: Spotlight stopped working!!!

Spotlight used to work in my Windows 10 laptop, but after I upgraded the system to Windows 11, it stopped changing background anymore. Is there any related patch or something I can do to fix this?

Windows spotlight is an option for the lock screen background that displays different background images and occasionally offers suggestions on the lock screen. For us to better isolate your concern, we'd like to gather more information:

• Is there a way for you to provide us a screenshot?
• Have you made any recent changes before this issue occur?
• Are you able to use spotlight before?

Meanwhile, we suggest that you follow these steps to modify Lock screen background to spotlight:

• Open Settings.
• Click Personalization and select Lock screen.
• Under Background, choose Windows spotlight.

Keep us posted if you need additional help.

 

Windows Spotlight/Background Apps

Hi, have you ever removed Edge?

Sometimes this might happen because there's a MS server issue. However, what you say above suggests something else may be amiss.

N.B. after resetting Spotlight as Bree suggests, it may take several days (in my experience) before it starts working again.

Please post a screenshot like this:
