Windows background slideshow not working

[Jerry202]

So, as the title says, my computer isn't letting me set a slideshow as my desktop background. The option shows up in my Personalization settings but when I click it, it just reverts me to having a static image as my background. I went into Google and got a thread telling me to go into the power settings in my Control Panel and set "Desktop background settings" into active, which it's already set to that. I've restarted the computer and nothing changes after switching this setting to inactive and back to active, it still won't let me choose slideshow as my background.

 

I'm hoping the best computer geeks in the internet can help me out with this problem

Out of curiosity, is the folder of which it's pulling the photos from accessible? Also make sure there photos in question are JPGs or PNGs. From my experience, it doesn't play well with other formats, especially webm.

That menu is part of the problem, I can't see it as soon as I click on slideshow, it just goes back to Picture by itself.

 

Sorry for not including the video before. I just figured out the snipping tool has a video function update

I did uninstall OneDrive on my computer, didn't want it connected to their servers all the time. Idk if that would affect it.
