Change default lock screen image

Windows 11 has this as the default lock screen image:

Is it possible to change this to an image I select?
Note: I do not want to change the normal Windows Spotlight, which I like. Just the one that shows before the desktop/login screen.
I tried WinAero Tweaker, but I still get the above picture. Maybe it is now hard coded? Used to work in Win 10.

There's something not right there as Windows Spotlight is for the Lock screen. So the background changes every now and again. Maybe check your 'tweaking' software settings.

I get the same Windows Lock screen Spotlight image when I log out.

In 11 pro you can change the lock screen to whatever image you want, are you using home or pro? The browse photo option isn't there in home

I believe you are right. I am using Home, and I don't think this feature is available. I have a Pro license, so I'll probably upgrade and see what happens.

It should be, I have it in Home. Whether I choose Spotlight or a picture as the lock screen I have the option to 'Show the lock screen background picture on the sign-in screen'.

Hi,
I have my lock screen set to show 'spotlight images' but lately it seems as though it's just been showing a single image instead the normal method of rotating the images from the web. I've already tried running this batch file: Reset_and_re-register_Windows_Spotlight , it seemed to correct my issue for a brief period of time but currently it's stuck on the single penguin's image (which I must admit I love penguins) but I'd still like to see an assortment of image's. At this point I do in fact have ms edge running in the background, but as we already have discovered by now that windows 11 is different than windows 10, I can't seem to locate the setting where I can allow certain apps to run in the background such as ms edge & settings. MS seems to have done a great job of making certain settings more difficult to find, if I could discover where that setting is located now, I might be able to possibly correct my spotlight image issue myself. By chance does anyone know where the allow apps to run in the background is located now?
Thanks,
David

For the settings app in all apps list right click select more, app settings, background app permissions, let this app run in the background and select always.

As for Edge it has it's own settings under settings and system and performance.

@Davy49 see @Brink 's tutorial that it can take a while for Spotlight to sync after resetting.

Thanks so much for your replies, as I'm older now I need to re-develop my patience, because I know good things are indeed worth the wait.
