Windows 10: You need more than one picture to show in your slideshow

Title, the windows lock screen slideshow feature does not work for me. I've tried using folders on both my install drive and another hard drive, it has the same error. The folder has multiple .jpg files on it, it's not empty, and the slideshow feature works perfectly fine with the exact same folder for the background slideshow. Anyone have this issue or know a fix? The folder is in the indexing list so that shouldn't be it.

Slideshow app only shows 30 pictures then loops


There seems to be a bug in the Windows 10 slideshow app. If you have a folder with more than 30 pictures in it, and you view the first one, then click the slideshow button, it will only show 30 pictures and then loop back to the first picture. I am talking about the slideshow that you get when you click this button when viewing a picture:



It does the same on several Windows 10 machines that I've tried. Does anyone know a fix? Or the name of another decent slideshow viewing program?
Thanks,

 

Photos app not showing more than 30 pictures when doing a slideshow

Hi guys,

I have an issue here.

The Photo App is not showing more than 30 pictures in a slideshow.

Before I had to reset my computer, everything was working perfectly, I could show every pictures in a row, even in a folder with 1000 pictures. Now that I have resetted my computer, it's no longer working. What should I do?

I have tried SFC + App troubleshooter + Reset + reregister app.

Can someone help me please?

Regards,

Tobi

 

Lock screen picture overlays slideshow

Hi, my issue with Windows 10x64 1803 Lock screen slideshow not working is a bit different than usual

When the issue occurs (not always, but almost always), the screen shows the defined Picture (and no clock etc.) _however_ when I press Enter, before showing the lockscreen as the overlaying picture is sliding away I can see a flicker of the slideshow underneath.
These are pictures from the correct folder and it looks as expected. After the flicker it shows the login screen with a picture

(login screen is kinda OK but half the time accounts (two) are doubled (making it 4), they differ in that in each pair one of the user pictures has a circle shape and the other is square, and the square ones have extra text underneath "Windows will try to
connect to {companyName}" .... I don't know if this is the cause or something completely unrelated ... but this question is about slideshow)

I have done lot of the usual steps (most of these relate to slideshow not working at all which isn't my issue anyway):

- remove the slideshow, lock, re-add it

- rename the slideshow folder

- changed settings in Power options (only Balanced is in the list) for Desktop background settings for battery to Available

- adjusted Advanced settings for slideshow to show not fitting images, show on battery, show lockscreen instead of turning off

- require user to press CtrlAltDelete is unchecked and disabled

- Windows Search is set to Automatic and running

- folder with images is indexed

No Windows updates pending atm

Restart didn't help

Ideally if this can be solved without restoration or reinstall or something of that caliber hopefully

Thank you!
