Windows 10: Disable the Lock Screen?

You guys might see if doing a clean install of the latest build may sort it since it works just fine for me in build 10130.

 

I might do that then, if it works I'll let you know. Thanks Brink

 

I did a clean install with 10130 ISO kindly provided by a member on here. I know in earlier builds the gpedit policy to disable the lock screen worked but is hasn't with the last 2 or so builds. Screenshot from build 10130 gpedit.

 

Banzi,

Is it working for you now in build 10130?

 

Sadly no even though the policy is set to enabled I still get the lockscreen when the PC boots.

 

I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully it will work for you in the next build. *Sad

 

Same here for me. I think I read three or four builds back that the Lock Screen is now an XAML implementation. This is when the group policy quit working for me. I am not sure what magic Shawn is using, but for me the group policy or the regedit no longer have any effect on the Lock Screen's appearance. As a side note when the group policy to disable the lock screen is enabled I do get the message "Some settings are managed by your organization" in the Lock Screen Settings and some options are grayed out. If I just Lock my computer I do not see the Lock Screen but on reboots or sign outs it always appears regardless of the settings I have made.

 

I've done a clean install to build 10130 and just like the others, it isn't working still. Maybe this will be fixed in the next build but I'm not sure it will be *Sad

 

I set up automatic logon with Netplwiz and thus never see that lock screen. Not everybody may like that option but it is a way around the lock screen.
