    Win10 photos screen saver not working

    Hi. Since a time back, my photos screen saver does not work anymore.

    The preview works fine enough, but no screen saver ever starts after the time I set.

    I have NUCi3BEH with Win10 Pro 20H2 with all drivers updated, all Store updates and all Windows updates.

    I've tried some suggested fixes found by Google, but nothing helps.

    It seems it's Windows screen savers in general that does not work, not only Photos.

    Any suggestions please?

    Recent files list in short cuts not working

    The recent files list and the pinned file you see when right clicking short cut on task bar quit updating in Quicken and they could not be cleared either. I sought help and was provided a .bat file that cleared both the pinned and the recent list. However, now neither Quicken nor the Office apps update the list.
