lock/login screen issue

I've noticed the same or similar..., a stock image showing before I'm logged in...

apparently it resides in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\SystemData in folder called LockScreen_W...

so, what happens if that stock image is deleted from that folder--or the folder deleted entirely?

You'll get no background image on either screen.

Still waiting for a solution... regardless what I do, I get the stock image on the first login after reboot... when I login and then lock, the picture is correctly being used, I set in the lockscreen settings.

"Starting in Windows 10 "19H1", the sign-in screen shows its background image with the blur effect applied. Many users are not happy with this change. Finally, Microsoft has provided a way to get rid of it."

Well, Edwin, looks like they're now providing you a way to ditch it.

Still am stuck on default login screen.

Now, if they would just provide a way to ditch the blur, we'd be all set!!!

You can now do it with GPE or Regedit.
