    How do I set some sort of AFK message on the lock screen


    I'd like to be able to set some sort of away message on my lock screen.

    Basically somtehing like "Gone for lunch, back at 12", "Coffee run, back in 10 minutes.", "In a meeting".
    Some script to set a premade background on the lock screen, and then lock the computer would be a simple solution.

    If I could set this to update using my calendar or sype status it would be even better. (So if I'm in a meeting, it should just state that I'm in a meeting and when the meeting is scheduled to end, not any detail.)

    :)

    Hi Peter,

    Let's get this done so you don't need to type in the password every time you access the computer. We found this
    thread
    (see Ruth Buruga's response). It provides information on how to turn off/disable the lock screen. Other Community members find it helpful. Give it a try.
