    Windows 11 - Spotlight will not work on Lock screen

    Hi,

    Problem

    • Windows Spotlight will not work on Lock screen – Just a black screen is displayed.
    Build Info and Background

    • Our desktop PC is a 64-bit PC running Windows 11 Home vsn 23H2 OS Build 22631.3235 and all the latest drivers are installed.
    • Our Desktop PC is functioning normally.
    • We have 2 Admin accounts configured.
    • Windows Spotlight works perfectly on Lock screen of only 1 or the 2 accounts.
    • Windows Spotlight work perfectly as the wallpaper on both accounts.
    Things I’ve Tried

    • I have done an in-place upgrade of Windows 11 which fixed the problem for a few hours and then the lock screen went black again.
    • For the account with the spotlight lock screen issue…
      • It doesn’t matter if the “Show the lock screen background picture on the Sign-in screen” is ON or OFF.
      • I can change the background to a default picture, or specify a personal photo, and it works perfectly.
      • If I set the Lock screen to a slideshow it just displays the default picture I previously selected.
      • From the Command Prompt (with Admin Privileges) I have run DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth and it said “The operation completed successfully.” But Spotlight on the lock screen still didn’t work.

    What else can I try?



    Thanking you in advance for your help, Dave

    Windows spotlight for Lock screen display only the default bleu picture

    No default pictures for Windows 10 lock screen

    I upgraded from Windows 7 home premium to Windows 10 home. Previously I posted about Windows 10 lock screen not showing any pictures or spotlight pictures to set and use in administrator MSA account. only a grey background is showing in lock screen setting under
    Administrator account. The lock screen picture was coming for a fraction of second and disappearing. I signed in with a local account and got the lock screen showing default pictures to set. But here also when I lock the screen the lock screen picture is not
    displaying.

    Why gpedit.msc not working in windows 10 home?

    How to set a lock screen properly with the Administrator or local account?

    Why any default lock screen pictures not showing when logging in as an administrator?

    Why the default lock screen pictures visible in local account instead of an administrator account?

    pls provide suggestions and solutions how I can set it properly.
