Windows 10: Lock upon sleep

I've reinstalled windows and noticed that the windows doesn't lock up on sleep and don't ask me to sign in. I know there is an option to enable login credentials after waking from sleep, the problem is that I can't find that option anywhere. It's like the option is being disabled or something like that. Can anyone help me fix that "ask login details upon waking from sleep"?

Computer doesn't lock upon sleep

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I appreciate the efforts taken by you in resolving this issue. I understand that the computer doesn’t prompt for a PIN/Password after waking up from sleep.



As you have already checked the Sign-in options, I would suggest you to refer the steps mentioned below and see if that helps.



We can try changing the screen saver settings and check. Refer the steps mentioned below:

1. Press Windows Logo key + I, to open
   Settings.
   
2. Click on Personalization and select
   Lock screen from the left pane.
   
3. Scroll down and click on Screen saver settings.
   
4. Now, select the screen saver and enter a time.
   
5. Ensure that the checkbox for On resume, display log on screen is selected.
   
6. Click on Apply and OK.

Change your screen saver settings.



Let us know how it goes.

PC hibernates / goes into sleep mode upon logout / screen lock

I am using my work computer. It's a laptop with a power connection (not running on battery.) The laptop is hocked up to two monitors (a total of three monitors, counting the laptop's own screen - I usually keep my laptop closed, however.)
Since I am at work I always lock the screen when I leave my computer. (I use the windows+L shortcut to lock the screen.) This all works fine.

However, after about a minute the computer goes into sleep mode / hibernation. At least I think it does, because the two monitors goes black - and it takes a few seconds to "wake up the system" (the monitors doesn't come back to life immediately when I press a key on the keyboard / move the mouse, as they would if a screen saver was active.)
This is very annoying if I step away from my computer for only a short while (like going to the bathroom.)

Here's what I want:
With power (not running on battery):
When I lock the screen, I want the screen to stay on for 1 minute, then go to screen saver for 15 minutes, then go to hibernation/sleep mode.

Without power (running on battery):
When I lock the screen, I want the screen to stay on for 1 minute, then go to screen saver for 5 minutes, then go to hibernation/sleep mode.

My best bet is that this is some sort of power saving scheme thingie, but I can't seem to figure out how to configure it to do what I want. Can someone please help me with a step-by-step guide to configure my system the way I want? Thank you.
