desktop customization - What's the source of those daily changing locked screen wallpapers on Windows 10?



I have these automatically changing wallpapers active on my work laptop (not activated by me) and I think the vast majority is at least high quality, some are brilliant and a few I just adore.


What is the source of these images?


I'd definitely like to download or even buy some of them.



Answer



The lock screen wallpapers can be found in the following directory:


C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_cw5n1h2txyewy\LocalState\Assets

When you navigate to that directory you will see a lot of files that don't look like picture files, as seen in the following screenshot:


folder containing lock screen pics


Right-click on any of the bigger files in that folder and select Open with and then select Windows Photo Viewer and you'll see that it is one of the Windows lock screen wallpapers.
