    Why my laptop always locks after screen off?


    Hi, I recently bought a laptop which runs Windows 11. I have set my screen to turn off after 2 minutes and go to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity. But the problem is, every time when the screen turns off not sleep, it automatically locks the screen too. So I have to unlock each time the screen turns off.In settings under sign in options, I tried setting "If you've been away, when should windows..." to "never"; but all that does is not locking my screen at all! Not even in sleep mode. Dynamic lock setting is off toois there any solution to stop locking the screen every time it turns off?

    :)
