Is there custom way to point Lockscreen picture in Windows Professional SKU? With Enterprise, I can do it.

I tried PersonalizationCSP registery node altering like in this: https://cloudbymoe.com/f/change-windows-10-pro-lock-screen-using-intune

I get default lockscreen blank, but custom lockscreen will not appear.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Per the document, personalization CSP is supported in Windows Enterprise and Education SKUs. It works in Windows Professional only when SetEduPolicies in SharedPC CSP is set. For general Windows Professional SKU, I will do more research about this question, if there is any update, I will let you know. Hope someone else who has any helpful idea.

    Meanwhile, you can open an online support ticket to get the further help. Here is the support link:

    Thanks for your understanding and hope everything goes well with you.

    Best regards,

    Simon
