Photo Folder/ Gallery Screen Saver FAILURE

Okay, I do have to wonder, who tests this OSX prior to the release?


Any photographs in any location, albeit iCloud, local HD or in the Photo App will not display under the screen saver option, instead just a black screen.

Yes, one change has been made. I deleted my HD1 and re-installed Big Slur and used the migration assistant to recover my pervious data.


Now the screen saver works again.


I will wait for the second release update of Monterey Jack Cheese before trying again.
