    Require sign-in not working

    Dell XPS13 with Windows 10 Home

    Trying to change the 'Require sign-in' on the Sign-in options page does not work. Will automatically return to 'Never' when navigating away from the tab, and computer will wake from sleep without requiring any sign-in.

    Any suggestions?
