Question

Start up picture

Hi all.
This is an unimportant question to everyone but myself!
It only goes to show that I am a pensioner with too much time on my hands.
I turn on my computer and (after an inordinate time if there has been an update) I get a Packard Bell logo, then I get a picture with a "do you like it on not " choice in the top right hand corner. If I touch any key I then go to a log on screen.
The photo changes now and again. I don't like some - usually the ones depicting cities or buildings, but usually like the landscapes and other photos from nature.
I would like Microsoft to include an option that gives some details of the photo
Without kowing what this screen is called how do I make a suggestion to Microsoft? I just want to know the name of the screen!
I warned you it is an unimportant question .... Wink

Thanks, exactly what I needed.
I'm so pleased I have the pictures and not "fun facts", but now I know how to turn either off.
The idea of the pictures is one thing, but having Microsoft chose fun facts for me is alarming Shocked .
Thanks for your reply,
