How to Set Custom Lock Screen Images as Wallpaper on Windows 10 'Windows 10 lock screen images to wallpaper'

Are you tired of seeing the same default wallpapers every time your computer boots up or goes into hibernation mode? Do you want more control over what appears when someone else uses your device without entering their password? If yes, then this article will show how easy it is set custom lock screens as desktop backgrounds in just a few simple steps!

Step 1: Enable the Option to Set Lock Screen as Wallpaper

To begin with, press Win + I on your keyboard to open Settings. Once inside click on Personal & accounts from left side menu.

Scroll down until you see 'Lock screen' and then toggle off the switch next to 'Use my picture instead of background.'

Step 2: Choose a Custom Image

Now that this option is enabled we can proceed with choosing our own lock screen image as wallpaper. To do so:

1) Go back into Settings > Personal & accounts > Lock screen.

2) Click on 'Choose a picture' under the 'Background' section at top right corner of window.

Step 3: Select and Set Custom Image

In File Explorer, browse through your computer's files until you find an image file (e.g., .jpg or .png) that you'd like to use as both lock screen background and wallpaper. Once selected click on 'Choose Folder' button at bottom right corner of window.

The chosen folder will now appear in the 'Background' section under Personal & accounts > Lock Screen. Clicking on it should automatically set its contents as your new desktop background!

Tips:

- Make sure to choose an image that is high-resolution enough (at least 1920 x 1080 pixels) so it looks sharp when stretched across full screen.

- You can also use third-party apps like Rainmeter or Stardock's ObjectDock which offer more advanced customization options for your taskbar and desktop background.

By following these simple steps, you should now be able to easily set custom lock screens as wallpaper on Windows 10. This will give you much greater control over what appears when someone else uses your device without needing their password!
