Windows 10: Recovering from Hibernate or Sleep

Since, I think, the last Windows Update, moving the mouse to recover from sleep or pressing power button to recover from hibernate, brings up a fresh and quite pleasant picture. Sometimes I click, or double click and it brings up the Windows "Sign In" box which I click and off we go. Sometimes though, despite much clicking, it refuses to bring up sign in box unless I press Ctrl Alt Del.
Prior to updates, I moved the mouse and, within a few seconds, my desktop appeared. No annoying (nice) picture.


My question is, can I stop this happening and recover from sleep or hibernate without the picture?

Thanks,

Mike W

Sleep,hibernate, and shutdown

Hi,

Usually, Sleep and Hibernate features are used to save power when using a computer. However, hibernate may not be available for all PCs as it was designed for laptops. Regarding your concern, since you’re trying to turn
off or disable these features, you may follow the step below:

• To turn off Sleep:
  
  Go to Settings > System > Power & sleep. Then, select
  Never from the drop-down list under the Sleep section.
  
  
  
  
  
• To disable Hibernate:
  

• Type Command Prompt in the Search box from
  Start.
• Right-click on it, then select Run as administrator.
• In the Command Prompt window, type powercfg.exe /hibernate off and press
  Enter. Close the window.

We’re just here if you need further help.

 

sleep or hibernate

I think you have sleep and hibernate confused... sleep just puts the computer in a low power state, making resuming the session faster... hibernate shuts down the whole computer and basically just saves whats in RAM to the hdd and loads it on next startup. IIRC...
