How to Download Windows 10's Lock Screen Spotlight Images to Your Hard Drive

Windows 10's lock screen features a cycling rotation of pretty great photography. If you’d like to save the images you find, here’s where to find them on your hard drive:

1. Make sure hidden folders are visible by opening an Explorer window and selecting Show Hidden items from the View tab.
2. Navigate to
   C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_cw5n1h2txyewy\LocalState\Assets
3. Copy the files in this folder to another location on your computer where you can easily find them. Create a dedicated folder for these images..
4. In the Explorer window for the new folder, open a command prompt as an administrator from the File menu..
5. Run the following command to add a .jpg extension to all of the files you just copied:
   ren *.* *.jpg

What you’re left with will be a mixture of images, plus some assorted junk files that are used by the lock screen. You can delete any of the images that you don’t need. Again, be sure to only work out of a folder dedicated to the images you copied from the lock screen folder, as the renaming command could screw up other files if you’re not careful.
