    Exit lockscreen without password


    Is it possible to exit the lockscreen and return directly to the desktop without being prompted to insert the password?

    I already set up Windows so that i do not have to insert the password at login or boot (via netplwiz): in fact when I boot my pc windows logs me in automatically. But when I exit the lockscreen, Windows requires the password.

    With Android devices, you can exit the lock screen directly, if you wont to do so, is this possible with Windows, too?

    Windows 10 2004, May 2020 Update.
    Thanks.

    :)

    Exiting lockscreen without password?

    I have a laptop with Windows 10 Home v1803, I'm the only user and the laptop is always at home. I already know that with netplwiz you can skip password request at boot or login, and in fact so I did. But I'm asking a different question - about the lockscreen feature.

    If, for whatever reason, I would like use the lockscreen, Windows ask me for my password on exiting the lockscreen. Would it be possible to skip password request upon exiting the lockscreen and returning directly to the desktop?

    I suspect the answer is no... but I'm asking here anyway, in the hope that I'm wrong.

    P.S.: with Android you can do this very easily - just do not set a password, or a pin, for the lockscreen and you're fine - although you have a password for your account, the are different. What if I had a smartphone or a tablet with Windows 10?

    Thanks in advance,
    .
