    Lock sign in screen inactivity idle time interval - any option to change 30 minutes by default


    After 30 minutes of inactivity that is without keypresses and mouse movements appears automatically Lock screen sign in / logon screen. I need to enter the password to unlock the screen and to enter the system back. Is there any option to disable this function or at least to change the timeout interval from the default value 30 minutes to anything longer?I tried to change the timeout in Screen Saver settings dialog, but it does not affect login screen timeout, seems it is two different and independent options.Also I tried to change the option "Interactive Logon:

    sign out on idle

    I think this may be what you are looking for. I don't think it will actually sign off the user, it may, but it requires a log on (user name/password or pin) after a key is pressed or the mouse wiggled. Uses the Lock Screen and a screensaver method. A blank (none, black) screensaver can be used if you don't want a display. You can choose any time interval you like. Give it a look and see if it might suit. Here's an excerpt and the link. TC

    Follow the steps below and check if it works. This uses 5 minutes, but you can choose what you want.

    Step 1: Right click on the desktop, and select Personalize option.
    Step 2: From the left side panel click on Lock Screen and select Screen saver settings.
    Step 3: From the drop down bar under screen saver select an option.
    Step 4: Check the box On resume, display logon screen, change the number to 5 in the Wait box.
    Step 5: Click on Apply,and OK.

  4. Lock sign in screen inactivity idle time interval - any option to change 30 minutes by default

    Windows 10 1903 Lock screen pin

    As you can see in the screenshot I linked, if you choose 3 minutes in the 'Require sign in' list box, it will automatically go to the lock screen every 3 minutes the system is left idle.

    If you click on sign in options on the Sign in screen and choose PIN, by default, this will be the default way to log in until you choose to change it it next time.
