Windows 10: If the password is not entered on the login screen within 5 minutes, the screen turns off...

If the password is not entered on the login screen within 5 minutes, the screen turns off, and then no matter what I do, the screen does not turn on. I have to turn the computer off and on again using the power button. The operating system installed on the computer is Windows 11. This problem only occurs when I first turn on the computer. After the computer goes into sleep mode, the screen opens without any problems when I move the mouse.

Ok, let the powershell command run overnight
If the command didn't solve the problem, the try these steps in order:

1. Disable superfetch service
   • Empty the following folder c:\Windows\Prefetch\
   • Restart the computer
   • Si ça ne marche pas, passer à l'étape 2;
2. Disable the AppXSvc from the registry: change the "Start" key value from 3 to 4 (see the screenshot)
