Reboot did the trick, Spotlight collection option now available.
Thanks
Creating a new user account always brings back the Spotlight collection in a matter of minutes after selecting Background Spotlight, the problem is that it doesn't seem to last.
After a day or two the collection disappears, the default Whitehaven picture pops back up and that seems to be the end of it.
I would expect a new collection to show up when the Windows Spotlight pictures get updated, given that they are saved in the same folder, but it doesn't seem to work that way.
I think MS needs to explain a little better what logic they use to update the Background Spotlight Collection; it doesn't make any sense to get back the default Whitehaven picture on its own without changing any settings. 😂
Nice one from the collection. (When it worked). 😊

This picture is from Bing Daily Wallpaper Collection which has unlimited pictures not just five and I had it a few weeks ago. Merry Christmas! .
Clearly, they are not reinventing the pictures they are all from the same collection, like the Lock screen pictures.
Bing wallpaper lets me pick 8 different pictures instead of 5, but it looks about the same logic.
Finally, after 3 days the Spotlight collection started to work again. We'll see how long it lasts.
Merry Christmas and happy 2022 to you too. 😉
Hopefully most of the issues will be fixed with the upcoming update on Thursday. 🙂
Yes, hopefully on Wednesday, but I wouldn't bet on it. 😒
