    your pc's power settings are preventing some options from being shown


    This started because opening the PC does not invoke a lock screen. I want a lock screen.So then: Sign-in options => Require sign-in presents the title statement.Nothing I have read online allows changes to force the lock screen on returning from "sleep".No other PC running Win 10 has presented this problem to me.Nd in regedit, there is no cs....... file under Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power.What should be a no brainer is now very complicated.
