Windows 10: Unable to logoff automatically

Yet again a new update has changed what i do, without any help to correct.


I leave my computer on, and expect it to power save and go to sleep and lock itself. I am ok with re-entering a password to open an new session. However now it just stays open. The monitor continues to displays the last active window, lighting the room.


Yes i Have changed the power save to 15 mins, but it stays shinning for 7 hrs. I want the computer to log off my session automatically. Yes have tried the online assistance to set up for this, the online 'help' function is useless. Many of the other responses in this issue are about it not staying open.



I want it to log it off after x mins. How hard is that??!!!!


This is what it used to do, but not now.

Is "Automatic Logoff after Inactivity" a global setting for all users if this setting is enabled.
