Windows Central Question

I just finished my update for windows 10 anniversary update, but whenever I lock my computer now, the lock screen wallpaper is all black, the text is fine, the buttons are there, it's just the wallpaper, when I click a key to enter into the password screen the wallpaper is there, but not on the previous screen. Any Help? Or has anyone also experienced this problem?
 
So if I understood this correctly it's not displaying your lock screen image? Have you tried changing it to something else and then back to the image that is supposed to be displayed now?
 
I know what you mean and i have the same problem!!

If you select that you want the same picture in lockscreen and login screen then you lose the lockscreen picture, this is the bug here

But if you do not select that in the personalization section then you have your lockscreen picture back but you get a blue solid color in the login page.

I hope they fix this because i want the same picture in the both places

it's a bug for the moment, I'm also experiencing it

Let's hope they release a patch next week

Are there any updates to this? Everything I find on Google/Bing only refer to the tech preview version of Win10, not anniversary edition. It annoys me because it's the same scenario on both my Surface and my Win10 laptop.
