I have a client with Windows 11 pro. I installed their computer in Nov 2023. For several months, it had the same lock screen behavior as my laptop which is that when booting up the machine, it would first show the spotlight picture, then after a few seconds you would see the text overlay about "do you like this picture", tips, etc. You would then need to click on the picture to get to the PIN entry.
Probably within the last month or so, the behavior on their computer has changed. It now comes up directly to the PIN entry screen (still with a rotating image blurred in the background). If you don't do anything, after about 10 seconds the spotlight image will come up with just the clock, but no tips and the other stuff.
While I would probably appreciate the new behavior, my client actually liked the old behavior better and I've been trying my best to get it back but I can't seem to do it. I've read several articles and I've done the whole SFC and DISM stuff as well as resetting the spotlight completely, deleting the cached files and settings and restarting the machine, but it just won't go back to the old behavior.
I would think that some Windows update might have changed it, but my laptop is always up-to-date and I've seen no change in the lock screen.
Any ideas on what it might be?
