  1. If you've been away, when should Windows require you to sign in again? - Never not available


    I have spent quite sometime trying to work out how to prevent the PIN or password being entered on a Surface Go 3 device which is managed by Intune. My initial challenge was that the setting appeared to be tattooed to the device from a security policy, which was no longer in place removed all to try and enable it.I rebuilt the device which to be honest I'd like to try and avoid as I have many and then found my options were still only Every Time, or 1,2,3,4 or 5 mins.I have tried the powercfg command powercfg /SETDCVALUEINDEX SCHEME_CURRENT SUB_NONE CONSOLELOCK 0 but this makes not differe

    Unlocked Realtek HD Audio Drivers Windows 7 & 8 (With Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive)

    DTS supported natively by Windows 8/8.1 and it should work on windows 10 too just DDL require to unlock your driver .

    not able to disable driving signing requirement


    I'm trying to install a program on Windows 10, from several years ago, and getting the error "A digitally signed driver is required." I looked up how to disable this requirement, and followed the steps.

    Shift-Shutdown

    Selecting configuration option for startup configurations, reboot

    Hitting F7 once I get to the options screen

    reboot

    And I still get the error while trying to install the program. I tried this a few times to no avail.

    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.
