    Windows 10 keeps signing me off


    No matter what I do, Windows 10 keeps signing me off. I have turned off every setting I could find and it still logs me off. The computer will remain on along with the screen still on. It will just log me out. Steps I have taken:


    Navigate inside the registry to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\7516b95f-f776-4464-8c53-06167f40cc99\8EC4B3A5-6868-48c2-BE75-4F3044BE88A7 and change the Key "Attributes" to Value of 2. Click Sleep, then System unattended sleep timeout

    Control Panel: increased all sleep timer to high numbers and if possible, never.


    In settings, disabled Screen and Sleep options under "Power & Sleep"


    I don't know what else to do and this has been happening for a couple of months. Did a factory reset of PC and it was working well until a necessary update occurred with put it back to it logging me off.

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

    • Launch the Store from your Start menu.
    • Click the user icon next to the search box.
    • Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
    • Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
    • When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Hi,

    It is possible that Use my sign-in info to automatically finish setting up my device after an update or restart
    option is enabled after the update that is why it asked you to sign in twice.

    • Go to Settings then click Accounts.
    • Select Sign-in options then Scroll down to Privacy and toggle off
