    Windows 10 Surface Pro 3 Looking for lock screen photo location

    Hi Dennis,

    To find the location of Windows wallpaper images, we suggest following these steps:

    • Open File Explorer and navigate to C:\Windows\Web.
    • You'll find separate folders labeled Wallpaper and Screen.
    • Screen folder contains images for Windows 10 lock screen.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    where is the directory/path location for "lock screen" and "background" images on windows 10?

    What is the location of lock screen images on Windows 10?

    Where, or what format, are the images used by Windows 10 when logged out or in lock-screen?

    I searched the entire drive for *.jpg, *.bmp, *.png, and *.tif but the one I was looking for did not appear.

    At first glance, Path to current desktop backgrounds in Windows 10?, although not exactly a duplicate, appeared to have the path I wanted. But when I went there, the pre-login image was there, but the lock-screen image was not. (And contrary to the claim in that answer, the files there did have extensions.)

    UPDATE: I just did a lockscreen, and got an image that IS in that directory, but earlier today, it was consistently an image of an interesting footbridge that is not in that directory.
