    Windows 11 Pro lock screen keeps locking

    Since the upgrade from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 11 Pro today, I cannot make proper use of my pc. It keeps going to the lock screen every 30 seconds or so. After I unlock it, everything is as it was before locking itself. Then the issue repeats.

    Looking for any suggestions before I use msconfig to start troubleshooting.

    Thanks in advance!

    Lock Screen keeps changing

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    Windows Spotlight picks the photos from Bing and displays them in the lock screen. I understand that you have set a picture and it is getting changed automatically.

    I suggest you to follow the steps to select the Picture that you want to be displayed on the lock screen. Please follow the steps mentioned below to set a Picture to lock screen:

    1. Press and hold Windows + I key on the keyboard to open settings.
    2. Click on Personalization.
    3. Click on Lock screen.
    4. Click on the drop down under Background and select
      Picture.
    5. Click on Browse and select the picture that you want to set.

    Hope it helps.

    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.
