First of all, I do not want to use the lock-screen in Windows 10, but only the logon screen. I already figured out that there are two different logon screens: first, the one displayed when a user logs on for the first time after restarting the computer, and the second that appears when the user logs off from a logged-on user.



While I managed to set a background for the second type of logon-screen by temporarily enabling the lock screen, set a wallpaper, and then disabling the lockscreen using



Administrative Templates -> Control Panel -> Personalization -> Do not  display the lock screen


I unfortunately fail to set a wallpaper for the "first case" scenario, i.e. the logonscreen displayed after the user restarted the PC. There, I only get the "accent color" as a background, but no image.



My question is simple: how can I set a background image for this scenario?

          This operation has become pretty simple since the Windows 10 Anniversary Update:





          • In Settings > Personalization > Lock screen, enable
            Show lock screen background picture on the sign-in screen.



            enter image description here




          • Under Background, click on the default "Windows spotlight" which shows a
            changing selection of images from Microsoft and select instead "Picture" or
            "Slideshow" to choose your own preferred background image.



            enter image description here




          The image you select here will appear as both your lock screen background and sign-in screen background.
