Please tell me the location of this file,  I have been directed to a folder where a number of the Windows 10 pictures are but this one isn't there and I want to change the boot picture.  Not the lock screen, not the background picture,  not the desktop picture,  not the theme picture,  not the personal icon picture,  not the user picture,  no any of those,  the very first picture that appears BEFORE you even get to log in,  it is a picture of the mountains with a red backpack in the foreground and lakes.  Please!

    Hello,

    You can personalize the looks of your Windows 10 computer screen by changing the wallpaper of its lock and desktop screen. To sort out your concern, we suggest that you check if the Background settings of the Lock screen is set to Windows spotlight. This option will display random photos from Bing and appears on the screen when your computer is locked.

    To do this, you may click Start > Settings > Personalization > Lock screen. Under the Background section, click the menu bar, and then select Windows spotlight.

    Hmm, How did you get a nice photo on the Boot Screen without having changed it yourself ?

    This normally has a basic graphic, and is not a matter of simply changing an image in a folder as you would do with your

    User icon, Lock Screen, etc.

    Not sure changing the Boot Screen to a high res image would be desirable as it could affect boot times.

    (Just checked mine and remember why I forgot what is looks like. Just a blue screen with a couple of icons flashing by so fast I barely see it )

    [EDIT: Even more complicated than I'd imagined - video below -  ]
