Lock Screen Problems in Anniversary Upgrade


I use Windows Home and find the inability to disable the Lock Screen on login really annoying. I used to use the registry fix on this forum but this no longer works.

In Spotlight Mode, the correct Lock Screen background is shown when I use Windows Key + L but the last selected picture Lock Screen background is shown when I log out. In Picture Mode, the correct LockScreen background is shown when I use Windows Key + L and log out. I can't get the slide show mode to work.


In summary:

• In Picture Mode, the Lock Screen background works
• In Spotlight Mode, I see the correct background using Windows Key + L but the last set picture when I log out.
• I can't get the Slideshow Mode to work - it just shows the last set picture whether I log out or use Windows Key + L.

Does anyone have this problem and have you found a solution?

 

Trying to enable Lock Screen

Hi Brink,

Ok so, after some serious configuration in all the suggested areas, the lock screen seems to be enabled once again, however, the Windows Key + L still doesn't work, before the Massive Update a little while ago, the Windows Key + L to lock the computer WAS working, that seems to be no longer the case. Any ideas?
