Slideshow on Lockscreen not working

Solution 1:

Apparently the slideshow has dependencies.

When I enabled the service "Windows Search" it began to work again.

Solution 2:

I don't think this is an issue with the slideshow itself exactly, I think it is more to do with windows not seeing any images that it can use for the slideshow.

If it was me, I would do the following:

  1. Make a folder called "testslide" (or whatever)
  2. Put 3 or 4 images into it
  3. Choose Add a folder from your screenshot screen.
  4. Find this "testslide" folder.... does windows show you images here?
  5. Pick Choose this folder
  6. See if the message You need more than one picture to show in your slide show has gone.

At this point, either a) everything is now working - make a folder with the images you want. b) your images are not suitable for some reason.. try images with a different extension (bmp, jpg, etc) OR c) something is not right with your windows install - but I don't think this is the case.
