SpotYoink
  • Simple terminal/console tool that lets you grab those amazing wallpapers Windows uses for its login screens.
How to use
  • Simply open up your Windows console/terminal and type in yoink
  • Follow the on screen instructions and you should have a new folder within your pictures folder named Spotlight with your new wallpapers
    • The login screen wallpapers don't update very often, so try to use the command maybe once a week I've programmed in a daily useage just incase
How it works
  • Windows actually stores the wallpapers it uses for the login screen temporarily in a folder located at:`Appdata\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_cw5n1h2txyewy\LocalState\Assets";
  • The files don't have an extension and are a mixed batch of different sizes/aspect ratios
  • What this tool does:
    • it grabs those files
    • converts them to a jpeg format
    • Filters out the non 1920 x 1080 files
    • Copys them all to the new folder stated above
Dependencies

I also worked on a version with a GUI, using GODOT and C# just as practice with that engine. Will update this readme with the repo link to that soon.
