    Screen Saver question, Please


    Hello,

    Have some contradictory results in trying to set up the W10 Screensaver, so if anyone has a few spare
    minutes, would be most appreciative for any help with this.

    Will blame it on old-age now..

    The line that comes up for the Screensaver says:

    Wait - Pull Down menu - minutes- check box - on resume display logon screen

    I have the pull down set to 30 minutes.

    *Do I also have to check that box ?
    I do NOT want to have to do a new Log In each time.

    How do I configure the Screensaver such that it simply waits 30 minutes to flip the pix's
    in the File I have, without doing any additional Log-Ins each time ?

    BTW: is there a "better" screen saver avail. from some third party I should
    look at that offers additional and easier options ?

    Thanks for help, very appreciated,
    Bob

    :)
