How to enable Spotlight Collection on Windows 11

Windows spotlight is now available on both Windows 11 and Windows 10.

On the Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22518 update, the Windows spotlight feature has been raised to a new level called 'Spotlight collection', which changes the desktop wallpaper automatically every day according to different themes. To put it simply, on Windows 11, both the lock screen and desktop wallpaper can be automatically changed according to many different themes, thereby providing a more refreshing experience. All you need to do is just enable the Spotlight collection feature.

Microsoft is currently testing the Spotlight collection with the Windows 11 Insider community. To experience this feature, you will have to have Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22518 or later installed on your PC.

If you are running Windows 11 Build 22518 or later, you can enable and experience this feature by following a few simple steps.

Enable Spotlight collection on Windows 11

Step 1: Open the Windows Settings application by pressing the Windows + i key combination.

Step 2: On the Settings window that opens, click on Personalization.

Step 3: Next, click on the Background item.

Step 4: On the Background settings screen, click the 'Personalize your background' drop-down menu.

Step 5: Click 'Spotlight Collection'.

As soon as you activate Spotlight Collection, you will see the changed desktop wallpaper, and also a new Spotlight icon at the top right of the screen. Clicking on the icon will tell you more about the available wallpaper options.

Hope you have a good experience with Spotlight Collection!
