Windows 10: Stop Auto Logout

Hi

I recently got a new laptop and I've noticed an annoyance I can't seem to change.

I set my screen to go blank after a minute or two of inactivity, but I can't 'wake' it using the touchpad like I could on my old laptop, does anyone know how to enable this?

Another annoyance is that it automatically logs me out each time the screen powers off.. and to be clear it's just the screen going off, not entering sleep. I looked in the settings (Settings>Accounts>Sign In options) and find the "Require Sign In" set to "Every Time" and greyed out.

I done a bit of reading and learned that for some reason (I cannot fathom) when using mega convenient biometrics to log in it greys out this option (??). And although I read plenty of people talking about it predictably there's no fix.. or at least that I could find. A lot of searches return a problem ENABLING the biometrics when a member of a domain, drowning out anything else.

I already done the usual of updating drivers, but there's no drivers relating to the touchpad at all from the Dell website and the Dell Update software doesn't come up with any available newer drivers, either.

Oh my Windows version no is 19041.264

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
