    problems in running slide show in lock screen


    Since switching to windows 10 from windows 8.2 I have had problems in running slide show in lock screen. The slide show will only operate when the screen timeout setting is set to 1 minute. All other time settings give a black screen at timeout. Am I missing something?

    I use the Lock screen but I do not use anything that can go with it such as slide shows or having aps appear on it. There is a setting in power for it maybe you should look at that in the CP??

    The Screen setting in Power and Sleep is where I have set "When pluggedin, turn off after" to 1 minute. All other durations (2 mins to Never) give a black screen and no slide show.
