  2. Laptop locks after 2 minutes inactivity

    I have windows 10 pro installed on my Acer Aspire F15 laptop. In all the power settings I said that the screen may never turn of (while using the battery, or with power plugged-in). and it may never go into sleep mode.

    But after 2 minutes of inactivity, my screen locks and turns black.

    I tried to look for an option in regedit, secpol, screensaver, power settings. But everywhere I look, there either isn't an option, or my computer doesn't recognize it by the looks of it.

    I have some screens to prove the settings:

    Monitor turns off after 2 minutes of inactivity


    At first I just thought my display turns off. It turns out that my monitor turns off because the system goes to sleep. For some reason, the system goes into sleep mode before the screen saver setting activates. After 2 or 3 minutes of inactivity, my laptop simply goes into sleep mode.

    Disable inactive lock screen.


    Good afternoon,

    I've got a feeling I'm missing something really basic but I am unable to disable the lock screen that appears after approx 5 minutes of inactivity.
    I've used registry and deactivated it following tutorials but that has only stopped the lock screen on start up.

    I'm sure I've got it turned off in settings but it still appears.
    Can anyone please point me in the right direction?

    Thanks,
    Chris.

    Windows 10 Home.
