Windows Spotlight NOT available
On my desktop running Windows 10 Build 10532 I do not have Windows Spotlight available as an option for the lockscreen.
How can I get this option? I have it on my other computers running 10537.
Note that 10532 does not seem to install properly on this particular computer.
Thank you.

I have the home version. The update did not work on the second time. I had been hoping there was just something simple I was missing, but perhaps it is an update/version problem.
"on the second time" you mean, you tried to reinstall that update and that failed? With what error?

The error was "the installation failed. Click here for more details"
Clicking brought me to the standard "windows update" screen in settings with no further information.

Well, but it was installed before - you tried to re-install it, right? And it still shows up as being installed?

I have Windows spotlight available on my laptops, which are on 10537.
This computer is on 10532. It will not upgrade to 10537 and windows spotlight is not available on it - nor have I ever noticed it on this computer.
