  1. How to stop automatic log out after 60 seconds on Windows 10 ?


    Hi,


    I have an issue with the automatic log out. I want it after five or ten minutes, not just 60 secs.


    I tried:

    • Settings > Personalization > Lock Screen > Screen Saver Settings
    1. Set screen saver to None
    2. Uncheck "On resume, display logon screen"
    • Settings > System > Power & sleep
    1. Screen: "On battery power, turn off after" -> Never
    2. Screen: "When plugged in, turn off after" -> Never
    3. Sleep: "On battery power, PC goes to sleep after" -> Never
    4. Sleep: "When plugged in, PC goes to sleep after" -> Never
    • Start > "User Account Control Settings"
    1. UAC -> "Notify me only when apps try to make changes to my computer do not dim my desktop"
    • System unattended sleep timeout
    1. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE >SYSTEM >CurrentControlSet >Control >Power >PowerSettings >238C9FA8-0AAD-41ED-83F4-97BE242C8F20 >7bc4a2f9-d8fc-4469-b07b-33eb785aaca0 Attributes1 -> 2
    2. Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options > Edit Plan Settings > Change advanced power settings > Sleep > System unattended sleep timeout > On battery Minutes -> 10
    3. Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options > Edit Plan Settings > Change advanced power settings > Sleep > System unattended sleep timeout > Plugged in Minutes -> 20
    • Console lock display off timeout
    1. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > CurrentControlSet > Control > Power > PowerSettings > 7516b95f-f776-4464-8c53-06167f40cc99 > 8EC4B3A5-6868-48c2-BE75-4F3044BE88A7 Attributes1 -> 2
    2. Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options > Edit Plan Settings > Change advanced power settings > Display > Console lock display off timeout > On battery Minutes -> 5
    3. Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options > Edit Plan Settings > Change advanced power settings > Display > Console lock display off timeout > Plugged in Minutes -> 5
    • Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options > System Settings
    1. "When I press the power button" -> Do nothing, Do nothing
    2. "When I press the sleep button" -> Do nothing, Do nothing
    3. "When I close the lid" -> Do nothing, Do nothing


    My windows specs are:

    • Edition: Windows 10 Pro
    • Version: 1909
    • OS build 18363.592

    My laptop is Thinkpad Yoga 460.

    Is this possible automatic log-in after 60 seconds for a certain user?


    Is this possible automatic log-in after 60 seconds for a certain user? We both use a Microsoft account. This person doesn't want to use password to log-in to her account. There are two accounts on this computer.
