    Can't change lock screen picture/slideshow?

    Hi everyone,
    So I’ve had this problem before and I recall it actually fixing itself at one point, but if I go into settings and go to the lock screen settings where I should be able to pick my lock screen picture or use Windows Spotlight (which I want to use), it says β€œSome settings are hidden or managed by your organization.” My computer is completely independent, not connected to a domain or anything, and I’m the only user on the computer (which makes me administrator). Does anyone know how to fix this?? Maybe edit the registry in some way?

      It looks like you have disabled Lock Screen. Use Ultimate Windows Tweaker 4. You will find the setting to Disable Lock Screen under Customization > Modern UI > Lock Screen.

          I don’t know why 50% of the time on this forum, the only recommendations are to install some random application to fix one little thing. I refuse to install that application, as there has to be some other way to fix this stupid issue.

            Yes. Navigate to
            [ICODE]HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Personali zation[/ICODE]
            and delete the NoLockScreen value

              That, my friend, is the answer I was looking for. Thank you very much, jmarket!
