Hello,
During an update of my computer (Windows 10), most of my photos disappeared, including the one I set as my lock screen wallpaper. However, that photo is still on the lock screen (before logging in) and I would like to know if it is possible to recover it... I have obviously tried to take a screenshot, but since I am not logged into a session on the computer, that is impossible...

Thank you for your help!

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 56.0.2924.51

    Hello,

    Follow this path to access the location of the lock screen images

    Open THIS PC --> Local Disk (C) --> Windows --> Web --> Screen

    If the photo is there, copy/paste it to retrieve it and save it in your image folder, on your desktop, or on external storage (USB drive).
