Split from this thread.

Up and running on both PC's.

Sadly, no new Widgets or Spotlight here yet.

Head's up!! If you don't see the new Spotlight

Collection, reboot.

    And disappeared again on 1/3/2022, clearly, they cannot make up their mind on how this thing is supposed to work. 🤣

    The default Whitehaven picture came back instead of the collection.

    The cut option on the interactive menu does not seem to do any good, I get this error if I try pasting in any folder.

    No explanation anywhere on how this different menu is supposed to work. 😒

    The delete just eliminates the icon from the desktop, and there is no explanation on how to get it back.

    If I create the shortcut and right click on it, it will let me open the file location which will show the desktop folder containing the Icon and the interactive menu.

    The whole thing doesn't make much sense.

    I think that the menu to switch to next picture should be part of a personalization settings screen not the desktop.

    I think Spotlight has its own mind and only works when it feels like it. I have spent enough time trying to 6 pictures to work, well it's the new year, maybe a new spotlight that works is on its way

    Happy new year to all.

    @BryceSor,

    It sure seems to have its own mind, after disappearing for several days, it popped up again on 1/1/2022 on two desktops, it also let me switch to 5 different pictures using the interactive menu that showed up with the icon on the desktop.

    Hard to see any logic on this weird behavior. 😎

    Note that the menus are also different on the 2 machines, one has extra options to create shortcut, cut and delete which is not clear what they actually do.

    Spotlight image of Switzerland has remained on my desktop without changing for several days now.
