Cumulative update Jan2020 for 1909 installed and now Windows Spotlight does not download pictures for lock screen. It just shows first picture from my pictures one with lake in mountains on all 5 of my PCs. Even if I do this:Go into the Settings App - Personalisation - LockScreen
Set Background to picture and choose one
Then open Windows File Explorer and paste each of these into the Address Bar
Delete everything in each folder
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_cw5n1h2txyewy\LocalState\Assets
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_cw5n1h2txyewy\Settings
Then right click your Start Button, choose Powershell (admin)
Run (copy and Paste) this command and hit Enter
Get-AppxPackage -allusers *ContentDeliveryManager* | foreach {Add-AppxPackage "$($_.InstallLocation)\appxmanifest.xml" -DisableDevelopmentMode -register }
which is just cleaning Content Delivery Manager cache and reregistering it.
It does nothing. I see some file downloading to:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_cw5n1h2txyewy\LocalState\Assets
biggest of them 134kb size, jpg file showing hand drawn bald guy with mustage holding hedge trimmers.
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_cw5n1h2txyewy\Settings
I see settings.dat grow in size to 256kb.
A thats it! No bigger files are downloading and spotlight just shows mountain lake picture all the time.
IMHO it is some bigger issue. Maybe url mismatch in the Content Delivery code or server problem and CD can't download spotlight images. it can't repaired by above procedure. Fix it MS, you broke the spotlight yet again.
