WinLight

Download Windows 10 Spotlight Lock screen images anywhere

How to use

Clone this git repository with git clone https://github.com/Biswa96/WinLight. If you want to download the images in a different folder copy the script in it. Run any one of the scripts as following:

  • Python script: Install requests module with python -m pip install requests. Run the script with double click or use python WinLight.py.

  • Shell script: Install wget in your system. Fox example, in Debian and its family run apt install wget. Make the shell script executable with chmod +x WinLight.sh. Then run the script with double click or use ./WinLight.sh command in your preferred shell.

There will be some JPEG images after success. Images will be in pair of landscape and portrait mode. Run the script multiple times to gather more images.

How this works

Both script work as following:

  • Download the cache.json file with some magic.
  • Edit it for further use.
  • Download the images.
  • Delete small blank files (less than 2 KB).

To see cache.json file, open it in Firefox which highlights it syntactically. For Chromium and its derivatives, use any JSON viewer or formatter extensions.
