How to turn off Auto-Lock in Win­dows 10?

Windows 10 has many features and settings that can help you manage your work and personalize the behavior of your computer. As computers become more and more personal over time, there are many ways to protect your data and prevent others from accessing it. One such method is automatic locking, which is good, but sometimes annoying.

Auto-lock prevents unauthorized access to your computer, thereby protecting your personal files and other data in your absence. While you can manually lock the computer (press Windows key+L), it’s easy to forget every time you leave the computer. That is when auto-lock comes into play.

HOW TO TURN IT OFF OR ON

• Right-click anywhere on your desktop and select Personalize. You can also open it from Settings by pressing the Windows key+I shortcut and clicking on Personalize there.
• Click on Screen time settings under the Lock screen in the left sidebar.
• There are two options here. One is Screen, and the other is Sleep. Select Never in both under ‘On battery power, turn off after’ and ‘When plugged in, turn off after.’
• Your computer will never turn off the screen and auto-lock or go to sleep. It happens only when the screen is turned off, and the computer goes to sleep that the auto-lock feature kicks in.
