Windows 10: Computer turning to "lock screen" at night

Im downloading a new update for my game at night. Ive disabled everything that could possibly take my computer to sleep mode. But its weird, it doesnt go to sleep mode at day time. but at night it goes to the lock screen/start screen and ruins my download. It doesnt turn off the computer but shuts down every program and goes to the start/lock screen. What causes this?

Different Lock Screen Picture When Turning On The Computer

Hi Bree. I went to that location and I apparently already have that option set to On. So I was hoping if taking it a step further would fix it, yet it didn't:

What I did was turn Off that setting, restarted the computer. Then after the computer finished loading, I went back to that setting location and turned it back On. I restarted the computer hoping that this 'probably' fixed the little bug, but nope, I accidentally forgot to cross my fingers, hence the Man Cave still haunts me.
