Windows 10: PC automatically locks/sleeps. Even when I am using it.

I have tries to disable it with registery and changed sentings using power options.

It still happens.

I had 8.1 and I recently upgraded to 10 and problem only began with 10.

Also, Is there like a registery I could import that frees my ram and maximizes performance? Half of my ram is being used for random shit.

This too was not happening in 8.1
