Windows 8.1 Custom lockscreen save location

[OliverDavis]

Hello,

A long time ago I photoshopped a car, never finished it but set it as my lockscreen in 8.1. The HDD crashed and I lost the file, but it is still my lockscreen if signing in to the same Microsoft account. I want to finish this picture, but I don't know where to find it stored. It must be on the HDD somewhere, as its there every setup even without network access.

Anyone know where it is saved?

I am running 8.1 Pro, 64bit of course.

Thanks for any help

Check C:\Windows\Web\Screen

Custom lock screens are in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\SystemData but there Hidden by default.

Check C:\Windows\Web\Screen

That's stock Windows lockscreens. But I actually found it in "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\SystemData\S-1-5-21-2901637108-1807152443-1605671340-1001\ReadOnly\LockScreen_A"
