Windows 11 v22H2 Spotlight Desktop "learn about this picture" icon disappeared, can't be recovered

Hi,

After an update ( I don't remember which one ) many programs, taskbar icons, desktop icons, both the lock-screen and desktop windows spotlights are destroyed. My Windows 11 is v22H2.

I could recover most of the destroyed items but I can't bring back the Windows Spotlight "learn about this picture" icon which normally should be at the upper right corner of the desktop ( as seen in the below picture).





The problem is, Windows Spotlight was showing wonderful images in the past but nowadays it shows disturbing weird images as seen in the below picture and I can't change the picture because of no control icon existing.





Could someone help me about how to bring back the learn about this picture icon and how to set my preferences to see the wonderful images as in the above 1st picture instead of the 2nd image, maybe interesting but disturbing on a large screen ! Thanks in advance.

Note: Please try to answer my question: My question is, how can I bring back (recover ) the "learn about this picture" icon! Before asking this question here I made an extensive research and many trials, there are many near questions like "how to remove the learn about this picture icon" but I couldn't find the way of bringing it back, instead of removing ! Thanks again.

Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

Right click your Desktop and select Personalize

Is your Desktop background set to 'Windows Spotlight'?

If it is, set that to Picture or Slideshow and set your preferred background wallpaper or folder for a slideshow.
