Can you tell me which feature you’re using for the rotating images Windows Spotlight, Bing Wallpaper, or a third-party wallpaper app?

If you’re not sure, no worries, just tell me whether the images normally appeared on the lock screen, desktop, or both. This will help me give you the right steps.

To reset the daily wallpaper feature in Windows Spotlight, you can follow these steps:

Check Windows Spotlight Settings: Go to Settings > Personalization > Lock screen. Ensure that the background is set to "Windows Spotlight".

Reset Windows Spotlight: You can reset the Windows Spotlight feature by deleting its cache. Open File Explorer and navigate to C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.Spotlight_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\Assets. Delete all files in this folder. Then, go back to Settings and set the lock screen background to Windows Spotlight again.
Check for Updates: Make sure your Windows is up to date as updates can fix bugs related to Windows Spotlight.
Re-enable Windows Spotlight: If the above steps do not work, you can disable Windows Spotlight and then re-enable it to refresh the feature.

After performing these steps, Windows Spotlight should start displaying daily wallpapers again, allowing you to enjoy the different photos, including landscapes.
