How to Customize Lock Screen on Windows 11
To customize the lock screen on Windows 11, follow the steps below:
First, right-click on any empty space on the screen, select Personalize.
On the Settings window, locate and click on Personalization =>Lock Screen.
Now, the screen will display the Lock Screen settings window. Here, you have three options: Personalize Your Lock Screen allows you to set images or slideshows as your lock screen background. Lock Screen Status shows status widgets on the lock screen, and the option to turn off lock screen images on the login screen.
To change the lock screen background, from the Personalize Your Lock Screen menu, select Picture or Slideshow. The default option is Windows Spotlight, fetching images provided by Microsoft from the Internet.
If you choose Slideshow, you can browse for the folder containing the images you want to use as lock screen wallpaper. Windows will automatically cycle through the images over time.
If you choose the Picture option, you can select recent images from the thumbnail list or click on Browse Photos to explore and choose any image you prefer.

Additionally, if you don't want to display tips and tricks on the lock screen, you can disable this feature by unchecking the box next to the option Get fun facts, tips, tricks, and more on your lock screen. This action will completely remove phrases and tips from your lock screen.
In the next section, you can choose apps to display detailed status on the lock screen, such as the number of unread emails or the current weather forecast. Click the menu and choose any option you prefer.
Finally, if you prefer not to display the lock screen background on the Windows 11 sign-in screen (where you enter your password, PIN, etc. to log in), simply turn off the slider next to the option Show the lock screen background picture on the sign-in screen.
