Windows 10: Log in screen sleeps into blank screensaver since update...?

My login screen for Win10 sleeps into a screensaver blank screen since a major update a few days ago.
How can I adjust settings for that?

:)

 

Windows 10 asks for password after screen turn-off timeout.

Yes, this does the trick. I was concerned about prior Windows' behavior not allowing a shorter timespan for screensaver verses screen sleep modes. It works fine.

I have my Screen set to sleep at 10 minutes and my blank screensaver set to activate at 20 minutes, and requiring Lock Screen (doesn't say password, but it does!!) so the password is required after the screensaver timeout, and not after the sleep timeout!

 

windows 10 after update issue

Since the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, the computer resumes to a blank screen after being idle and going to screensaver. It wakes just fine from the sleep mode. Can someone please tell me how to fix this problem?

Thank you!

 

Hi Bansaw.

Did you try resetting and the black continued?

The tutorial

Change Screen Saver Settings in Windows 10

I will note there have been several threads abot lock screen not being what people set or the password entry screen being wrong.

Try the tutorial. If it persists I can point you to a thread with a registry change. I'm not a big fan of registry hacks and would wait for MS to fix. That said I would use feedback hub app to report issue.
