    Hello Dimitris, and welcome to Ten Forums.

    Just to verify, did you already try to reset and re-register Windows Spotlight using the method in the tutorial below?

    Sometimes it may take a day afterwards for images to sync again.

    If you did all the steps in that tutorial without success, then you could try doing a repair install of Windows to hopefully fix it.

    Try the tutorial again.

    Reset and Re-register Windows Spotlight in Windows 10

    Make sure you follow the instructions exactly. In particular, it is vital that you chose Picture or Slideshow as the lock screen before resetting Spotlight. Then be patient, the tutorial does say...

    Sometimes it may take up to 24 hours after resetting for Windows Spotlight to sync again.
    ps:can be server of pictures down?
    Doesn't look like it, I'm getting new pictures. That lake picture is not a Spotlight picture by the way, it is a default Windows 10 picture that will be shown if Spotlight hasn't yet downloaded any pictures.

    As you have asked this question before, it may be that there is more wrong with your Windows than just Spotlight not working. Try running SFC /SCANNOW

    Run SFC Command in Windows 10

    If that fails to fix this, you could try an in-place repair upgrade.
