Between computing sessions, Windows displays one of two screens: the Lock screen and the Welcome screen. About the Lock screen When your Windows 10 computer first starts or has been idle for a while, it displays the Lock screen. As the name indicates, the Lock screen is a security layer between the world outside the computer and the information inside the computer. The Lock screen displays a background picture (or a slideshow of pictures), the time and date, and network connection information. It can also display information from some of the core Windows 10 apps, including Alarms & Clock, Calendar, Mail, Messaging, Phone, Skype, Store, Weather, and Xbox. The Lock screen doesn’t display user account information or specific message content that you might not want to share with people who happen to walk past the computer. Windows 10 comes with a set of attractive Lock screen images. You can choose a static background from among those, enjoy the daily Windows spotlight photos, or choose a specific picture or set of pictures that you have access to from your computer.
