where is the directory/path location for "lock screen" and "background" images on windows 10?

Hi Alex

The default wallpapers in Windows 10 are stored in C:\Windows\Web\Screen

You may also find more in just C:\Windows\Web

%LocalAppData%\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_cw5n1h2txyewy\LocalState\Assets, I believe.

Thanks for replying!

Sorry, I should've mentioned that clicking Browse doesn't lead me to the pictures. I've searched all folders and files that Browse contains and I can't find anything.

Hi Alex. I'm Greg, an installation specialist and 10 year Windows MVP here to help you.

Click Browse below the pictures to browse to and select the Pictures you want. For a Slideshow choose a folder.

The WIndows Spotlight on Lock Screen are spectacular scenic shots with much better resolution than any other pictures before. They are also included in the background slideshow Themes packages you can download for free from the Store and load from the Themes panel: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/collectio...

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.
