Windows 10: Any way to delay Windows Hello when locking the computer?

When I lock via Win +L it immediately unlocks and stays unlocked when I walk away from my computer. I always have to do some acrobatics to lock it while out of view of the computer which seems silly. Is there no way to delay the unlock after locking?

Random Auto-Locking of Computer Screen

Nobody suggested checking out Event Viewer? When your computer randomly locks, search for, and open: Event Viewer Under Windows Logs, Check out: • Application • Security, and • System See if you can find something that states anything that could be related to your computer locking. The newest events are listed at the top of each section, so finding an event log would be pretty easy to find. Hopefully we can find what is causing the computer to lock.
