Windows 10 Lock Screen Image Lookup

A simple script that will fetch the currently displayed Lock Screen wallpaper being used by Windows 10 and do a Google image search to help identify it. Resulting search will pop up in your default browser.

This came about as a response to the poor UI/UX design by Microsoft where the image information is shown only prior to the login screen showing. For those like myself that wake their computers through keyboard input, this made it extremely tedious to try to learn more about people's wonderful photography and places around the world.

Installation

Requires the wonderful Requests module to run.

Open a terminal in the script's directory and type pip install -r requirements.txt to install it.

Usage

  1. Run the script with python application.py in the folder containing the script.
  2. Enjoy the eye-candy.
