    Set time for password on awakening after computer put into sleep mode?


    When I take a break from the computer, I click on my Sleep taskbar icon. I guess in my safety paranoiac state, I set things up so that when I awaken the computer, I have to put in my master PW. This has become a PITA and I was wondering if one can set the timing such that the need for a PW will be an hour, or at any desired time after Sleep had been set?

    :)

    Win 10 Anniv - How do I stop the mouse from waking the computer?

    After putting computer to sleep, any inadvertent bump of the mouse reawakens the computer. The Device setting for the computer where it says "Allow mouse to awaken..." is not checked, but the mouse still awakens the computer. What has to happen to get
    this fixed?

  3. Windows 10 Screen Saver an Sleep Mode do not work on HP23

    The sleep mode puts the computer to sleep but when it is awakened only outlines can be seen. If I completely darken the room I can see enough on the screen to RESTART they it all comes alive after re-entering my password. The screen saver is set for
    5 minutes and 30 minutes....it never shuts off the screen.
