Windows 10: Issues after automatic update(internet/no lock screen password prompt)

As it says in the title I am having two issues with Windows Ten, both coming after an update on the 6th of October. The more pressing and annoying is that after the update, whenever my computer goes into sleep mode (closing laptop or simply a longer than expected work break) my computer will wake back up, but when I press any key to go to the password prompt for login, the prompt never appears, and I am forced to restart, oftentimes losing some research I have been doing (I previously had OneTab, but I deleted it in the process of troubleshooting the second issue *Sick).

The second issue has a temporary fix, but due to the high restart frequency caused by the first issue, has become more prevalent. The issue is that after any windows update, my internet across all browsers is runs painfully slow. After hours of searching and trying suggestions, I stumbled across uninstalling my wifi driver and reinstalling with a reboot. This worked extremely well, and my download speed went from <1Mbps to 30Mbps. The issue is that whenever windows decides to do a small update, I am forced to go through the same process, and Windows seems to enjoy small updates. I am wondering if there is anything I can do to avoid this in the future.

Thanks for any help in advance!

Bing Lockscreen Wallpaper does not update

Yes.. Bing wallpaper changes automatically after recent critical update. Lock screen wallpapers changes automatically after I installed recent critical update on my, Lumia730. Thanks Microsoft for fixing lock screen wallpaper issues.

 

Unable to login to a local account

I have two local accounts. After recent automatic OS updates, one of my local accounts is not working properly. At the login prompt, I enter my username and password, which is accepted but then after a few seconds I get kicked back into the login screen
again without ever getting to the desktop.

Moved from Windows / Windows 10 / Windows Hello, lock screen & sign-in )

 

Hi, regarding the first, you might try this:
Require Sign-in on Wakeup - Turn On or Off in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums

Then by way of routine checks: From an admin command prompt
[Windows key + X, click command prompt (admin)]
chkdsk C: /F
Your PC will need to restart.
Make sure the result is clear or fixed- else do not proceed.
Post back the result, which you can get after a restart as follows:
How do I see the results of a CHKDSK that ran on boot? - Ask Leo!

and
From an admin command prompt run
sfc /scannow

and report results.

 

Hi dalchina,

Thanks for the response. First off, it appears that the wifi driver was not the issue. I did not properly isolate variables, and it turned out I did a registry clean at the same time as reinstalling the wifi driver. Upon further attempts at speeding my computer (after it slowed back down), I realized that cleaning the registry, using ccleaner immediately fixed the internet problem. I have done this several times, and the following is the only issue that currently comes up upon registry scan when the internet slows:
Invalid file reference ImagePath - c:\programdata\rpcnet\bin\rpcld.exe HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\rpcld
Deleting this registry key miraculously fixes the internet, even without a restart.

Is there a way to prevent this key from being created?

Regarding the login screen issue, I turned off the login prompt upon sleep, which bypassed the issue. I am hoping to find a complete solution at some point. Here are the results of the chkdsk:

Hi, rpcnet and rpcld.exe seem to be part of a product called Lojack developed by Absolute Software, sometimes bundled by PC manufacturers for tracking stolen PCs.

You might be able to check by right clicking the exe and checking properties.

How do I remove Computrace LoJack from my laptop?
This might be difficult
