    Windows 10 Lock Screen Not Working


    On January 24, 2021, I tried to log into my Windows 10 PC but the lockscreen doesn't work, it only shows the background and the mouse, it doesn't show the time, date and other important UI that I would use to reboot my computer. I tried rebooting the computer but no results. I tried some online articles and they don't work, I can move the cursur around but I can't enter my password.

    :)

    Windows 10 Lock Screen Not Working

    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
