    How to remove annoying suggestions on W10 lock screen?


    Hello everyone! I hope I'm posting this in the right section.

    Just wanted to ask if anyone here knows how to remove some annoying suggestions on the Windows 10 lock screen. I already checked on the lock screen settings but haven't figure out how to remove those suggestions.
    Please check the image below.

    Thank you so much in advance!

    Greetings!

    This has been discussed before and there is a tutorial in tutorials how to disable those Spotlight suggestions. Open Settings and search for Spotlight.

    Hi!

    Welcome to TenForums!

    In the settings, it is called Personalization>Lock Screen and then you would turn this setting off:

    Unfortunately that's not going to help @jleyroux. That setting is only available for Picture. The OP has selected Windows Spotlight, which doesn't have that option.

    Thank you @Bree @EyeInTheSky @bro67 for your support!

    I can confirm that the "Fun facts, tips and trick" setting only appears if I select "Picture" on the Background setting. See image below, notice that the tips setting is turned off:

    My current settings are this ones: See the image below. That is what I see when selecting Windows Spotlight... I can't seem to find any option to turn off the suggestions...


    And hey, no problem, @EyeInTheSky ! :)

    It would be useful to have a Tutorial to disable/enable this feature since MS can't be bothered to design their software properly

    That's the same as @EyeInTheSky described and @Bree said doesn't work.

    Hello Jean @jleyroux,

    Normally to do so, you would have to select something other than Windows Spotlight for the lock screen, and turn off Get fun facts, tips, and more from Windows and Cortana on your lock screen.
