    Windows 10 Pro Non-activated 21H1 Spotlight issue


    Hi, I'm new hereI'd like to ask about an issue I have after updating to 21H1My PC runs on an non-activated Windows 10 that I got from the official site and I have been using it as is for quite some time now. The feature, Spotlight, is probably my most favorite feature out of all and it'd always shown up on my lock-screen whenever I boot up. It's was also somewhat helpful as when it'd appear it's loads up my startup apps in the background right before I log in my password, and then as I log in it'd go straight to my Desktop with no loading animation. After updating to 21H1, Spotlight was nowher

    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.
