    How do I increase the default Idle time check for Windows 10?


    We have been using a scheduled task to auto log off users if they go idle. We use this for our classroom computers to prevent students from leaving their computers logged in and exposing their accounts to others gaining access. We set the task to trigger when Idle, then set the action to be shutdown /l . We set the conditions to this:Start the Task only if the computer is idle for: 30 MinutesStop if the computer ceases to be idleThis worked perfect since July. As of last Monday, Sept 25th, We have been getting reports that computers are logging students off after only a few minutes. We tested

    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
