Customization :: Lockscreen Slideshow Does Not Work

Aug 12, 2015

When I set my pc to show a slideshow on the lock screen after a few minutes of inactivity, it shows only one default picture instead of the pictures in the folder it is configured to use. If I look in the settings, there is some red text that says "You need more than one picture to show in your slideshow", even though there are eight pictures in the selected folder.

The "only show pictures that fit my screen" and "include camera roll folders" settings are off, and "when pc is inactive, show lock screen instead of turning off the screen" is on. I have DisplayFusion installed, but it is not set to control the screensaver.

Customization :: How To Get Slideshow Background To Work

Aug 17, 2015

Heretofore on Windows 7, I was able to enjoy random slide show of all my pictures as background. Now, when I go to control panel personalization I'm asked for a picture 'album', which limits the variety of background pictures. Is there any way to set my controls to get the slide show of 'all' my pics?

Networking :: How To Remotely Update Lockscreen Wallpaper Slideshow

Oct 9, 2015

At my company, we have about 20 laptops that run Windows 10 and are connected on a local network. All are domain-joined and connected through AD. One of my favorite features of Windows 10 is the lockscreen slideshow. This is what you initially see when you boot your PC, and is displayed with the time, date, and other icons. By selecting multiple photos, Windows will create a nice slideshow and display them on the lockscreen. I have about 30 photos in a folder that I've used to create a slideshow.

Here is what I'm trying to achieve. I'd like to set every machine on the network to have a lockscreen slideshow using those photos. I could do it manually, but that poses two problems. One, it's very time consuming, and needs to be done for new PC's as well. Secondly, I'd like to be able to add new photos to the 30 I have, and have them add to everyone's lockscreen slideshows. If I manually added them, I'd have to go to each machine to update with the new photos.

One solution I was thinking of was to point the directory that Windows gets the slideshows from to a network share that contains the images. But I worry about what will happen when a user is away from the office and doesn't have network connectivity to that drive.

The best solution I can think is to have a script that will copy the lock screen photos from a network shared folder to a local folder on C when connected to the network. It would need to only add photos that aren't added already to avoid duplicates. That way, the files are locally accessed, but can be updated remotely, and there aren't any issues with leaving the network. The script could be distributed through group policy.

Customization :: 24 Hour Clock On Lockscreen

Aug 25, 2015

I pretty much have resolved all my niggling little issues with Windows 10.....I however can not seem to get the clock on the lockscreen to show as 24 hour clock. I have it set to 24 hour clock everywhere else but the lockscreen. In fact even in the preview for the lockscreen settings it shows it in 24 hour mode, but in reality when the lockscreen comes up it still shows the time in 12 hour clock. So am I missing something somewhere? If it shows on the preview as 24 hour clock, this leads me to believe that this capability does exist. No?

Customization :: Slideshow Not Working?

Sep 3, 2015

one of the 4 pc's with Windows 10 on it gives me problems with the slideshow.

Strange because on the other computers (no inside fast install) and mine it works perfect.

Everytime, at a given moment the slideshow restarts at best. On the other hand, it stops sometimes and i get the BING background.

This is trange, because on my pc it is the exact same file that is used.

Customization :: Photos App Slideshow Speed

Nov 28, 2015

I'm not very happy with the media options in Windows 10, everything else seems better than Windows 7 except for that aspect. What I am trying to do is use the "Photos" app to select a folder of pictures I want, I then choose Slideshow but it goes through the pictures really fast lasting only a few seconds. I want to have it last more like 1-2 minutes per picture.

Oddly enough it seemed to work before with the default picture set, but when I tried to set it to a folder in my OneDrive it doesn't switch over, and not even any other folder works. Slideshow lists two folders (pictures, OneDrive desktop) but they are both greyed out and unclickable.

Customization :: Adding Pics To Show In Slideshow When Not Using PC

Dec 16, 2015

I used to be able to choose whatever pictures that were in my computer to show in a slideshow when not using my PC. I would go to personalization and all my pics would have a little checkbox to choose if I wished. I am unable to do that now and so my slideshow is doomed to the same pics forever. How can I control what to put on my screen while my PC is not in use.

Customization :: Dual Monitors - Synchronizing Slideshow

Aug 8, 2015

Upgraded to Win 10 (from Win 7) on Friday, very impressed. The only problem I'm having is that I have two monitors operating in dual mode and previously used to run a slideshow as the background and the same photo was shown on both monitors. In windows 10 for some reason the slideshows photos are not the same.

I've updated graphic card drivers etc and been through all setting I can think of, but just cannot synchronize things.

Customization :: Slideshow - Select Images Not Folders

Nov 17, 2015

When making a slideshow in Windows 10 for the lock screen and the desktop background can you select individual images from folders instead of selecting an entire folder? Win 7 could do this and i used it and liked it a lot.

It's not a huge deal but i didn't want to make copies of the images to put in a "slideshow" folder and also leave them organized in their original folder so i can actually track them down later.

Customization :: Lock Screen Slideshow Not Working (Intermittent)

Mar 5, 2016

When I first setup the slideshow it worked fine. Then, out of the blue, it stopped working (due to an update I thought). But since then it comes and goes. It can work for a few hours but soon goes back to sleep mode instead of the lock screen slideshow!

I've triple checked the settings, uninstalled and reinstalled the slideshow, changed the image folder etc.

I've even changed and re-changed the NoLockScreen setting in the registry.

In short, nothing works.

Customization :: Screen Saver Slideshow Works And Then Quits

Nov 2, 2015

I have a few personal photos set up to show as a screen saver. When I preview the settings all is fine. When screen saver starts, it runs through the photos and then the screen goes black with a message about an error stopped screen saver from running. It doesn't tell me what error or any other information. The setup is the same as I have on another PC only with fewer pictures.
