  2. Windows 10 not prompting for password on resume from sleep

    Even though I have the "Password protection on wakeup" setting set to "Require a password" (see image below) on my Windows 10 PC, when I wake my computer from the sleep state, it does not prompt for a password. It just shows me the desktop.

    Does anyone have any suggestions for making "lock on return from sleep" work?

    Forgot Windows 10 password...

    For future reference, there have been reports that this was patched out several weeks back. I found an alternative method doing some registry diving.

    Windows 10 not prompting for password on resume from sleep

    I do in fact login with a password. I was a bit dubious about switching that setting back and forth but I figured I'd give it a try. Since I couldn't readily guess where that setting is, I just clicked in the search box on the task bar, typed "login"
    and was led to the Settings / Accounts / Sign-in options UI (not the Control Panel, which is what I was showing in my original post) which has a "Require sign-in" field that was set to "Never". I changed this to "When PC wakes up from sleep", put the PC to
    sleep, and when I woke it up, I was prompted for my password.

    So not backing and forthing with changing the "require password" or the other steps you suggested were required. But thanks for (maybe accidentally Windows 10 no password prompt after sleep :) leading me to the solution.
