Windows 10 Start Up Screen

[lots2seeinmyrv]

Trying to change the picture on the Start Up Screen to just One Picture.

Currently it keeps rotating to a Windows chosen picture and I want to turn that off and just put my own picture without their rotating pictures.

Went to Settings / Personalization / Lock Screen / Picture...chose my own picture...

then shut down and turned back on. My picture came up, but then their rotating pictures came back.

Thanks!

No, I didn't want to eliminate the lock screen either, just the extra screen before the lock screen.

Not only do I want the lock screen, my normal account does not have administrator privileges.

If you have updated to the Anniversary Edition it cannot be disabled. If not you can Google disable Win 10 lock screen and there are many articles on it but if I recall correctly you do have to make changes in the registry.

It's very very easy to disable the Win 10 lock screen. No need for registry editing....

How to disable the Windows 10 lock screen

Use the Windows key + R keyboard shortcut to open the Run window.
In the Run window, type: netplwiz
Click OK.
Click your account within the Users for this computer field.
Click the checkbox (take check mark out of the box) beside Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer. ...
Click Apply.

The question was not how to disable the lock screen and I did word my response incorrectly which mislead you. Yes you can disable the lock screen but you cannot eliminate the picture screen prior to the lock screen with the anniversary edition.

You're close but you are not done, you only changed the lock screen. In addition go to Settings/ personalization/background/ then switch background to picture, drop down to the next box click browse and pick the picture you want from the file of your choice.
