Spotlight

Hi,

Windows spotlight is an option for the lock screen background that displays different background images and occasionally offers suggestions on the lock screen. For us to better isolate your concern, we'd like to gather more information:

• Is there a way for you to provide us a screenshot?
• Have you made any recent changes before this issue occur?
• Are you able to use spotlight before?

Meanwhile, we suggest that you follow these steps to modify Lock screen background to spotlight:

• Open Settings.
• Click Personalization and select Lock screen.
• Under Background, choose Windows spotlight.

Keep us posted if you need additional help.

3. Click onLock screen.
4. Under "Background," make sure Windows Spotlight is NOT selected and change the option toPicture orSlideshow
   
   
5. Use the Windows key + Rkeyboard shortcut to open theRuncommand.
6. 
   Type the following path and clickOK.
   
   %USERPROFILE%/AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_cw5n1h2txyewy\LocalState\Assets
   
7. 
   Select all the files(Ctrl + A)and hit theDelete key to clear all old images (if applicable).
   
   
8. Use the Windows key + Rkeyboard shortcut to open theRuncommand again.
9. 
   Type the following path to where the Windows Spotlight settings are stored and clickOK.
   
   %USERPROFILE%/AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_cw5n1h2txyewy\Settings
   
10.

11. Restart your computer.
12. OpenSettings.
13. Click onPersonalization.
14. Click onLock screen.

Solution 2

1. Open Settings.
2. Click onPersonalization.
3. Click onLock screen.
4. 
   Under "Background," make sure to enableWindows Spotlight. (If you don't enable the feature, you're likely to get an error while running the PowerShell command.)
   
5. Open Start.
6. Search forWindows PowerShell, right-click the result, and selectRun as administrator.
7. Enter the following command and press Enter to reset the Windows Spotlight:
   
   Get-AppxPackage -allusers *ContentDeliveryManager* | foreach {Add-AppxPackage "$($_.InstallLocation)\appxmanifest.xml" -DisableDevelopmentMode -register
   

Restart your computer. I have tried these 2 solutions but the windows spotlight didn't change so can you explain and fix it?
