Windows 10: If you've been away when should windows require you to sign in again - freezes

When I open settings -> accounts -> sign in options -> If you've been away when should windows require you to sign in again , and select "never", the window pops up asking me to enter my password but the window freezes and is completely unresponsive. It doesn't respond to typing, I can't enter my password, I can't click Ok, I can't click Cancel, it's completely frozen and I just have to close settings. How do I fix this problem? Alternatively, can I change this setting trough command line or something, bypassing this buggy window? Thanks

password sign in

Hi,

About your concern with typing the password after being idle, it is actually recommended to activate for security reasons.

If you wish to disable it, I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

• Go to Settings.
• Click on Accounts.
• Click on Sign in options.
• On the right side, you will see required sign in.
• Change it to Never.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Windows 10 sign in requirement

Microsoft should make the W10 sign in requirement optional. I can understand the security necessity in an office or other working environment, but there are many situations where this type of security is not an issue and the sign in is just an added inconvenience.
I was able to remove my W10 PIN Sign-in in at Sign in Options under Accounts. However, that created an even greater nuisance by requiring my Microsoft account sign in. I noticed an earlier post has outlined steps to remove the account sign in using netplwiz and some registry mods. Is this the way I should proceed now to get W10 to come from boots and sleep without human intervention ?
