  1. Why does Windows 11 oft times inhibit user activity for several minutes after login?


    This occurs about half of the time, but often, when I login to Windows 11, it takes Windows several minutes 3 to 7 or so to do something before I can actually work on my stuff. Although I've read comments to the contrary, it seems to me this has something to do with Windows accessing the system drive because I can hear the drive whirring every time the problem occurs and the problem persists until the hard drive stops whirring. I cannot identify anything else being different from when it happens to when it doesn't happen. Since I have an eight core, sixteen thread AMD processor there is no

    Windows 7 - automatic force logout the user after specific session time (even if user is active)

    Hi,

    I am looking for a way to force logout a user after 1 hour of computer usage. This will need to happen even if user is active.

    It will be good to have some kind of message pop up on screen 5 minutes before the logout to indicate the user to save the details.

    This is NOT

    • idle time log out
    • Auto screen saver after idle time.
    User should be able to login again after entering the password....... and the 1 hour session cycle repeats.

    logical steps may be as below.

    1. trigger = user login
    2. counter time - time "system time now + 60 minutes"
    3. trigger 1 = (system clock time = counter time - 5 min)
    4. Action - system message ="you have 5 minutes to save your work. Please save your work to avoid losing it"
    5. trigger 2 = (system clock time = counter time )
    6. Action - Execute logout.exe
    I am not programmer and hence the steps mentioned above may not be accurate.

    Please help either by guiding me to some of existing ready solutions available in market or a simple code (like time out counter).

    Thanks

    Current active users that are friends

    The other reason I suggested this is that users can add characters to their username that are not alphanumeric (e.g. user*). This confuses things somewhat when looking at the list.

    Why does Windows 11 oft times inhibit user activity for several minutes after login?

    Unknown user account at windows 10 login screen

    I have the same issue but I have 11 users and now on the log in screen I have 11 user names and 11 of the "password" with the "key" next to them. So, that's 22 logins on the lock screen. The "password" logins are actually the users. I am trying to get rid
    of the "password" tabs so only my user names show on the login screen. I checked for the registry folder you mentioned and it is not in the list.

    Any other suggestions?
