gPhotoShow no longer set

When I've set gPhotoShow as my screensaver, it works fine for a while.
However I notice many times it's no longer working and when I check Windows10 settings, the screensaver is set to "none".
Set it back to gPhotoShow it works again for some time (sometimes hours, sometimes days)
When I use another screensaver (that comes with Windows) it does not change.
Any idea's on why this is happening? It happens on 2 different machines, both with Windows 10 (1 Pro + 1 Home edition)


But besides this small issue: Love this program!!!

gPhotoShow never changes default windows screen saver. It has no reason to do it and it doesn't have the required code.

I wasn’t expecting it did for sure, but cannot figure out why windows behaves on screensaver like this only with gPhotoShow.
Asked because maybe you experienced it before and maybe it’s a tiny simple conflict somewhere

Regardless, thnx for the fast reply and the great screensaver

The most likely reason is that there is another program that changes the screen saver, an antivirus, a system cleaner utility or some other utility
