How to save Windows 10 lock screen wallpaper

This article is about how to save the Windows 10 lock screen wallpaper. The editor thinks it is very practical, so share it with you as a reference and follow the editor to have a look.

Method 1: grab the cache folder

This is the most conventional method and does not require the help of third-party software. Although the lock screen image focused by Windows 10 cannot be downloaded directly by users, it will be downloaded and cached locally by the system. You only need to open the following directory:

C:\ Users\ user name\ AppData\ Local\ Packages\ Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_cw5n1h3txyewy\ LocalState\ Assets

Cache directory of Win10 lock screen wallpaper

You can find the focused picture file of Windows 10.

These files are not in JPEG format by default, copy them out and change the suffix to .JPG.

After changing the suffix of the file name to .JPG, you can open the picture view.

The principle of this method is simple, but the operation is complex, because the image cache format is not JPEG by default, so it is impossible to preview-while Windows 10 lock screen focus often more than one cache image (subject matter, adaptation screen size is different), without preview, it is very inconvenient to find your favorite picture, so this method is still a little troublesome.

Method 2: use Spot gadget to extract

This is a gadget developed by netizen "Clarence,". It is a green software that can be run directly without installation (click here to download). After running, a folder called "pics" is generated in the directory where it is located, which is the picture of the Windows 10 focus lock screen.

Spot has only one exe file, which will generate a pic folder after running it.

What is in the pic folder is the lock screen wallpaper currently focused by Win10.

Compared with the previous method, this method is more convenient to use, and the extracted images are saved in JPEG format by default, which is more direct for both preview and use.
