  1. Windows Soptlight changing in settings - not visible in lockscreen


    Windows spotlight images are changing regularly and the change is visible in the settings please have a look at the attached image. However, the changing of the spotlight images is not visible in the lockscreen please have a look at the attached image in the Thinkpad P53. It has an Nvidia graphics card along with inbuilt Intel graphics. I have tried to solve this by changing the default graphics as Nvidia as well as the Intel one. However, in both the cases, the results are the same.


    Could you please let me know what happened in this case?


    Thanks in advance for your time.

    Windows Spotlight Lockscreen not visible

    After the latest update to Windows 10 last night, windows spotlight picture is not visible. The description of the picture is there and the request asking if I "like what I see" or am "not a fan", but I just have a blue screen, no picture. I love this
    feature! How do I fix it?

    I went to the Assets folder and there is a list of pictures there...

    I've also seen several suggestions listed that mention making changes to the registry. However, I'm not that versed in computers and don't even know where to find HKLM! I don't know if I trust myself enough to make the change even if I could find it!
    But I'd try anything if you can give me basic instructions...

    I WANT SPOTLIGHT BACK!!

    Thanks!

  3. Windows Lockscreen Photos

    Subject: Windows Lockscreen Photos

    I am running Windows 10 Professional version 1803.
    Normally I saw beautiful changing landscape photos on the screen when opening the notebook.
    About 3-4 weeks ago these stopped and I just have the standard fixed lockscreen now.
    I tried to change settings/personalization/lockscreen without solution.
    How to get the changing lockscreen photos back?

    Suggestion appreciated,
    Jorgen Staal

    Lock screen settings won't change, no error message.

    Thank you for the detailed response zdzdz, I'm glad it worked for you.

    I tried the steps you listed and it didn't fix it for me. It did remove all my existing lockscreen images, so now I just have a black screen as the lockscreen. I can't even change this black lockscreen back to the picture slideshow now. Gaaahh Windows.
