How to turn windows spotlight back on? #20

I ran your script and now I lost the windows spotlight option in the background settings. Now how do I turn it back on?

Heya,

Are you talking about the lockscreen background or the desktop background?

The script should only change the lockscreen setting, but it doesn't disable or hide the spotlight option.

I have run the script to try and replicate this issue, but in both cases the spotlight options remain visible and available for both desktop and lockscreen. image image

You could try to run the registry file to undo the lockscreen changes. This is found in the Win11Debloat script folder > Regfiles > Undo > Enable_Lockscreen_Tips.reg

Let me know if that works

You're right, the cause is kdpuvvadi's debloat-windows11, it blocks CloudContent. Thank you for taking the time.
