    Windows spotlight no longer works on Windows 11


    Hello, I've encountered a problem with windows spotlight, it no longer works on my computer lockscreen, each time I try to turn it on on personalization settings it reverts back to "Picture", and all I end up getting is a black screen when locking the screen.I already tried all the fixes I found in this website: How to Fix Spotlight Not Working in Windows 11? [Ultimate Guide] partitionwizard.com, but none of them worked. Is there any solution for this problem? Thanks in advance

    :)

  2. Windows spotlight not work!!

    Yes friend all these steps working for me.check these path , first path for check : C:\Windows\Web\Screen (find the stuck image and rename it) , or second path " C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\SystemData\ " at this path you will se two main folders check all these folder at all and you will find the image there.Rename or delete the image stuck only.After re-register again the spotlight and wait after some restart.Something last i had the same problem and delete the registry folder "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\Creative\S-1-5-21-1367095634-179868200-954147944-1001" and do a restart after all these step the spotlight download again new images and start working again.Please make a backup first at register.before delete everything.

  3. Windows Spotlight no longer works or is accessible in my Windows 11. Problem started after update before the last one. How do I fix this?

    Windows Spotlight no longer works or is accessible in my Windows 11. Problem started after update before the last one. How do I fix this? I tried the suggested fix that was posted on line by Microsoft, but it didn't fix anything, because as far as my version of Windows 11 is concerned "Windows Spotlight" no longer exists, or at least all the "fix" options don't work or even acknowledge Spotlight's existence.

    I know my computer's functionality isn't dependent upon Windows Spotlight, but I got used to it, and I'd like to have it back and functioning.

    Thanks,

    Spotlight NOT WORKING in Windows 11

    Ok everyone. I found a great tutorial about how to fix Windows Spotlight in the lockscreen. And yes, it is on Windows 11 Pro.

    It helped me and my Windows Spotlight finally works again!

    Nevertheless to say that you must follow each point as described. For some people will work, for some others, probably won't, but you may have a try.

    Follow each step, even if you don't have Bitdefender installed - some issues comes from there -.

    * Use admin rights to run PowerShell as well as CMD
