  1. Windows 10 - computer keeps closing programs and going back to the login screen


    Hello,


    In the last few days, my Windows 10 machine keeps closing my programs and returning to the login screen when left idle for 5 to 10 minutes. It started doing this after the most recent Windows update was made a couple of days ago. For example, I keep trying to upload photos to my Shutterfly account. I cannot leave the computer to do this on its own because it will quit and go back to the login screen. If anyone knows a solution to this, please share. Thank you.

    :)

    Can't login to new computer w/Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for your reply.


    • Are you able to login to Microsoft Account on Web?

    • Have you installed any language pack?
    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.

    Step 1: I suggest you to select the appropriate language in login screen at the bottom right corner and check if it helps.

    Steps 2: Use On-screen keyboard in the login screen to login and check if it helps.

    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help.

  3. Login Screen Background keeps defaulting to stock image

    I've set a custom image on my lock screen to show up on the initial login screen whenever I first start up my computer. But occasionally, the login screen defaults to a stock landscape image that comes with Windows 10.

    To clarify, here are the steps I've taken:

    • Go into Settings -> Personalization -> Lock Screen
    • EDIT: Set image to Picture
    • Click Browse... to look for and select a picture
    • Turn on Show lock screen background picture on the sign-in screen.

    However, no matter how many times I retake these steps, the default login screen background occasionally
    comes back. How do I stop this from happening?

    UPDATE: I forgot to mention a step here in my initial post. I have already set the background to
    Picture, thus the custom image.
