But it didn't solve the issue
An In-Place Upgrade "compares" what is installed on the computer, with the Windows ISO image.
Then, it overwrites any corrupted Windows files, with clean copies from the ISO image.
This is how it "repairs" Windows while allowing you to keep your programs and personal files.
I figure it's build dependent
I do a daily reflect backup but since this issue is random I didn't revert to a previous backup. So I don't do things quite as religiously.I don't think so. It could be any of a few thousand things.
Most of us use backup software religiously.
That way, when we see a problem like you're having, we just restore from a backup that didn't have that problem.
Most of us also keep collected in a folder somewhere... all, the things we tweaked.
So copy all those, so that all images are the same .Set the one you want as Lock Screen (can open with Photos app and right click to do).
Lock pc, then unlock
Programdata > Microsoft > windows > system data (will have to take ownership to access - won’t hurt anything as windows will reset ownership after next reboot)
Find folder with your image - will have many resolutions.
Copy all of those and overwrite all images in all folders under system data
Works as a charm, tested with one boot, and 3 reboots. Thanks buddySet the one you want as Lock Screen (can open with Photos app and right click to do).
