Removing loading screen background

Hi,

A bit of a weird problem.

Whilst setting up my daughter's laptop I played a little prank and put a photo of my face as her lockscreen background. All fun and games, and I changed the lockscreen image into another image. But the image of my face still shows up every time the laptop is booting up and then the screen turns dark and then shows the new lock screen background image.

So now she's mortified that for her rest of her school career that she'll be stuck with my face popping up every time she restarts her computer.

So, could anybody help me find out how I can remove this image?

I've tried changing the standard background and the lock screen background but that doesn't solve it.

It's a Lenovo Thinkpad E14 Gen 5

Any help would be mightily appreciated.

Click to expand...

All I did was use Settings > Personalization > Lock screen...




The Lock Screen image hasn't changed since I set it.





There's also this... but I just checked my registry and I haven't used it...


At the bottom of the 1st post in this tutorial are links to many "related" tutorials.



NOTE: At this registry location... HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Personalization
I don't seem to have a "Personalization" key on the left side, under the Windows key. So you may have to create that.
