  1. Windows spotlight only shows on window + L


    Spotlight was no longer working. I went through all the necessary steps with the assets and settings and re-registered in powershell. Now spotlight only shows when I click on window + LI searched help and it says to go to settings>personalization>lockscreen>background list but I do not see "background list" in there.

    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.

    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.

    Windows Spotlight Wallpaper not Showing

    Hi Omer,

    To provide you with the best resolution, we would like to clarify a couple of things:

    • Do you mean that Windows Spotlight is not immediately active upon sign in?
    • When locking your PC (Win+L), do the Windows Spotlight images change from time to time, or does it stay the same?

    Your reply is most important for us to assist you accordingly.
