Windows 10: Windows 10 Slideshow Problem

I want to make a slideshow from a folder containing pictures. I know how it works, but the slideshow won't play or recognize pictures with shortcuts. So the pictures are not actually in the folder but there are shortcuts to them. How can I make the slideshow play them? I don't want to copy these pictures because that's just wasted space on my hard drive.

Windows 10 LockScreen (IOT) slideshow - Spotlight

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



Lock screen can be set to slideshow with the help of the steps below on every Windows normal version, you can try the same steps on your Windows 10 (IOT).

1. To change the lock screen to slideshow, you can go to
   Settings > Personalization > Lock screen.
   
2. From the Background drop down option, select
   Slideshow.
   
3. Click on Add a folder and select the image folder you have.
   

To change the Slide time to 6 seconds, you can make the changes from the registry.

1. Open registry navigate to
   HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Lock Screen
   
2. Right click on the Right pane and create a new
   Dword(32-bit) Value key.
   
3. Name it SlideshowDuration Double click set the value to 6000 which is 6 seconds.
   

I would also suggest you to post your query on
TechNet for better resolution on this issue, if the steps above doesn’t help.



Hope it helps.
