Change User Profile picture in Lock Screen

I set a lock screen picture for my lock screen and my account picture is covering the most important part of the lock screen picture I set. Is there away to disable the account picture on the lock screen or move it from the center on screen?

Hello Raysim,

We regret the inconvenience. Let me assist you with some useful information from here.

Now, the size of the user profile picture on the Lock screen is a feature controlled by Windows GUI. However, you can alter the perspective of any lock screen photo by resizing or cropping it in a photo editor, such as Paint.

This is especially useful for vertical photos if Windows is enlarging them to fill the screen and cropping out huge portions. Before changing the size, right-click on the desktop and choose "Screen resolution" to find the resolution of your screen. Open the image you want to use for the lock screen in Paint and click "Resize." Check the "Maintain aspect ratio" box. Select "Pixels" as the units and in the Vertical box enter the same number as the height of the screen resolution. Save the file as a copy with a different name.

Next, when you select this image for your lock screen, you'll be able to see the full vertical image instead of a cropped version. Experiment with cropping and adding space around images to see what works best for your computer.

Further on, provide us a screenshot of the issue in the Lock screen. The detail might help us to identify the exact cause of the issue.

Here's how to post a screenshot in your query:
