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.

    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. 😂

    Most unstable feature, I set it for Spotlight collection and after a restart it goes back to Picture. 🤐

    Often even without a reboot, just on its own. It is not saving the settings correctly.

    The menu to switch to next picture also disappears for no reason.

    Another variation for the right-click menu on the Spotlight icon, after the collection disappeared again.

    Looks like they cannot make up their mind on how this feature is supposed to function. 🤣
