While there is a plethora of screensaver screens are provided in the customization of my device, I would like to create my own theme using personal photos of my garden, dog, family, etc. Is that option available with the current Window version?

    Hi,

    Windows does include basic screen saver option that you can customize, but they're limited to simple effects and transitions. To set one up, go to Settings > Personalization > Lock screen > Screen saver. In the Screen Saver Settings window, choose Photos or My Pictures Slideshow from the drop-down menu, then browse to the folder containing the images you want to use.
