Hi Brink, Thanks. This seems to do the same really, just enable Spotlight via a theme instead of manually turning it on. Dynamic Theme is great. Thanks. I've not replied for a day or so to see if it's working. It's fixed my issue perfectly. I like how much you can customise it. I'm not using...

I've followed guides across various websites, as usual for Eleven Forums has the best guides and do know whilst this is the folder the Lock screen images. It isn't for the Wallpaper images. My current Wallpaper images remain when I run the batch file, so know they're being stored elsewhere, but...

I'm now wondering why I've always had this ticked, use OneDrive, but never ever seen it. Didn't even know it was there. Weird.

As MK111 was saying in 11/2024 I don't have it in Settings either but do have it set in the Registry. All it ever shows for me is about the Wallpaper image it's showing so it's quite fun. I don't get the "tips" or "tricks" just the "fun facts". Can't say I notice them tbh. But I don't get the...

winget install 9WZDNCRFJBMP: It looks like 9WZDNCRFJBMP needs to be lowercase now as per the link: winget install 9wzdncrfjbmp In uppercase I get -> No package found matching input criteria. https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9wzdncrfjbmp

You don't need to type desktop. Not sure what you mean here. From a user interface pov you could do this already (in the background it worked differently previously), although it wasn't enabled by default and it still isn't.

No worries. I probably didn't phrase it the clearest. No you shouldn't need to have Admin rights to change HKEY_CURRENT_USER. I now need to have Admin rights on my Work PC to change HKEY_CURRENT_USER, but oddly not all keys in HKEY_CURRENT_USER. Which may not be related of course.

No! I now need to be in oddly, some HKEY_CURRENT_USER locations, but not others in HKEY_CURRENT_USER, on my Work PC, which may not be related of course.

Historically if you Sign-Out and then Restart (from the login page) it also causes apps to not remain loaded in memory. /It looks like a bug though.

Thanks. This is good to see in general, as no one likes Admin prompts when they're not even necessary in general daily usage.

Oh really. Personally, I wouldn't want to be permanently logged in as Admin. It circumvents the need for UAC. Thanks for the info.

I said that more as a reminder to myself 😆 I work in Application Support and had my own Admin account for years, but now the IT Admin department have taken away my Admin account for no particularly good reason, and I need to waste their time to install Apps for me to test different versions...

Yeah of course you can. I've not messed with UAC for years so forgot you even could set it this way. I suspect it's not default for consumers anyway, as Microsoft got so much bad rap when Vista was released they've not dared. The feature you speak about is utilised in Business environments...

But only intending to End Task something in Task Manager is too OTT to require credentials. I guess the theory is you may be able to End Task another Account's open apps but there's way to ensure you can only End Task your own apps. I assumed when Administration Protection is fully rolled out...

This tells me a lot of Apps just aren't going to be ready!
