  1. Spotlight won't give me photos I prefer


    Generally, I want photos of nature with with bright sunlight, but spotlight keeps giving photos with little sunlight, mostly shot on cloudy days. I actually like them, but what chance will I have of getting what I want most if I give that feedback? I was in this position before with another laptop, and saying I didn't like the photos got me a variety but not what I wanted, for months. I ended up turning off Spotlight and choosing my own photo. So, currently, I don't give Spotlight feedback, and wait. And wait. And wait. And wait.

    :)

    Spotlight

    Hi,

    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.

    Submitting images to Spotlight Lock Screen Photos

    WHO DOESN'T LOVE THE SPOTLIGHT LOCK SCREEN PHOTOS?

    I am an avid nature lover and I have a travel bucket list. This list has grown as a result of seeing the photos on the Spotlight Lock Screen. I really appreciate the links they include to find out more about the location. It truly inspires me to want to
    visit these places one day.

    I have the good fortune to live in a beautiful country with truly picturesque locations that many people do not know about. I have explored numerous parts of Trinidad's Northern Range and wish others could behold its beauty.

    My question/thought/suggestion is:

    • How do they choose those images?
    • How can someone submit/suggest images to be included and shared with the rest of the Windows community?
    We shouldn't be selfish and I wish more persons could experience and witness my twin-island home of Trinidad and Tobago. I, or anyone else should be able to share that through the Windows Spotlight Lock Screen Photos!
