    Login Failures After Log Off/Lock/Sleep


    Upgrade to Win10Pro from Win7Pro. System is set to use secure logon with Cntrl-Alt-Del in conjunction with Yubikey. It is also set to require login after going to sleep or hibernate. Attempts to login inevitably fail after locking workstation or waking from sleep/hibernation. First error is usually Remote procedure call failed. Sometimes it says that it does not recognize credentials. Second and third attempts are usually The handle is invalid. After the third attempt, the system restarts. Getting logged back in usually requires 2 to 3 restarts.

    Am I the only one with this problem? Is there some setting somewhere that needs changing? Or, is it a bug that needs fixing with an update?

    Please let me know if you have discovered a solution to this problem.

    Login Screen Only Working After Restart

    Whenever I boot up my computer or wake it from sleeping, the lock screen will appear, but clicking to bring up the login screen only gives me a blank login background with only the wifi, accessibility, and power options available in the corner. The account
    picture and password box just never show up.

    Restarting the computer does not have this problem (whether from the desktop or the login screen, both work fine), and I am able to log in after that, but waking from sleep or booting from being powered off still do not work, and then I have to restart it
    again in order to log in.

    If I sleep the computer immediately after restarting (and before logging in), then waking it does work normally, but as soon as I have logged in, sleeping and waking brings back the issue.

    I have tried using the netplwiz options to both not require a login and alternatively to require hitting ctrl-alt-del in order to login. The latter option changed nothing, and the former option just caused an endless loading screen every time.

    I think this started happening after the first update following the anniversary update, but I'm not entirely sure. I haven't been able to find anyone else with this problem. It isn't getting in the way of anything in particular, since I can still log in
    by restarting, but it's been bothering me since around that time, and it's getting very annoying.

    Problem: Windows 10 reverts to blank screen immediately after displaying lock screen. What's happening?

    I have Windows 10 Pro running on a laptop, docked with desktop extended over two additional monitors. Power management set to leave computer on but turn display off after 10 minutes.

    Steps to reproduce:

    Begin with laptop powered off.

    Power on the laptop, leave long enough for power management to turn screen off.

    "Wake" laptop by moving mouse or pressing a key.

    System behavior:

    Laptop display briefly displays lock/log-in screen (not more than a second or two), but screen then goes blank/black. At this point, laptop remains powered, but seems unresponsive to keyboard input. On some occasions, the mouse pointer will be visible on
    the monitors, on other occasions not; in either case, all displays are off/black/blank - no desktop, no lock or log-in screen appear on any of them.

    Recovery:

    Have been able to recover by pressing power button (put computer to sleep), and then wake computer from sleep. Upon waking, lock/log-in screen displays as expected, long enough to allow log-in. Have observed that this may require more than one attempt (waking
    from sleep intermittently exhibits the same problem behavior).

    If user login is performed promptly upon start-up, this problem does not occur (once logged in, can allow computer to power off displays, and upon resuming, the desktop appears as normal (not configured to display a lock screen).

    Login Failures After Log Off/Lock/Sleep

    My only thought on your post is do you really need all that security? Do you always leave it switched on? I have never used hibernation to be fair, I just switch manchine off when heading for bed, or going out for a while. Otherwise it stays on minus monitor as I wont be away that long. I hope you find your answer soon, its beyond my knowledge.
