Locks window upward to inactivity

I use Windows 7. My active windows page is left idle for about a minute my computer automatically goes into a "locked" mode It's frustrating. How this function can be inactivated? Thank you.

This lock is mixed with the screen saver settings to verify all the three steps below.

1 set the screen saver - Panel, customize, Screensaver [in the lower right corner of the window]. You can change the idle time for the screensaver to start and also set / clear the check box if you need / is not necessary to connect again after it activates.

You must then set / clear the part connection of this setting in the two

2 power options, [on the left side of the window] require a password on wake up

and

3 power options, plan {power} active settings change, change of plan avancΘs, [you will have to click on "view the currently hidden settings] {active power plan}, require a password on wake up

Steps 2 & 3 are simply check that the alteration was set & saved - there should be no problem in normal circumstances, but several people have reported problems with this.

  • Auto lock Windows 7 accounts after inactivity minor

    First of all, I would like to say that I have seen others with these questions, but no one wants to answer them say on the power settings and screen saver options.
    Can I please have an intelligent answer of someone reading my problem as a whole and not jump to talk power settings and screen saver options?

    I've had this problem for a few days now. I started to play Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City via the gametap about a week or two it y a. I had no problem, first, but then a few days ago I started having problems with my computer screen goes completely empty after a very short time being inactive (I played the game and stopped to use the restroom and came back to the white screen). The only thing that would work for me was pressing the power button. After that, I got the screen saying the account has been locked and I am required to reconnect. I have no password for my account, I could click the icon and return to the game. However, the game froze due to the computer is locked and I had to ctrl + alt + delete the game and reopen it.

    This problem happened several times with me all with different time periods in which he would go idle in. I checked the power settings and options are set to never. I checked the screen saver to make sure that it wasn't required to log back in the curriculum vitae and who is not checked as well. I have changed the GPO settings using gpedit.msc and put the "Microsoft network server: idle time required before suspending a session" to zero, so it is disabled and I still have this problem. It becomes very annoying because I can't take a step if I interrupt momentarily because it was locked at the time wherever I go back on the computer. I log in and the game is frozen because of this. I was jamming through different forums looking for explanations or solutions to this problem, but I could not find. Other people seem to have similar problems, like me, but the only answers that someone feels they should give is pointed toward power settings or screen saver options, even if these people have said this is not only because they checked.

  • Firefox 22 changed and locked Windows 7 title bar (big and bold)

    Don't know why the decision was made to map the Windows settings, but upgrading to FF22 FF21 has also changed and blocked my settings of fonts Windows 7 toolbar (active and inactive). Now, they are big and fat. While I can change the color, I can't change the font, the size of the police, or unbold (stays "BOLD" independently "B" highlighted or not).

    Not sure if anyone else has this problem, but it just made my ugly windows.

    See the image. Color is changed, but the police are not a size 6 and it's also when "BOLD" should not be.

    Difficulty in returning to a pre-FF22 backup registry entry for:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER
    Control Panel
    Desktop
    WindowsMetrics

    You can't really change the entries in regedit because they are data hex values. But this (after hours) to solve my problem.

  • Wake up the Qosmio F50 - 10G system mode 'sleep' and boots account locked window

    Why when the laptop is put to sleep and left for a while, flashing light and stops when you press the power button / laptop will wake up showing the BIOS screen then boots in the window account locked?

    Why I get this is event viewer? Source ACPI
    The embedded controller (EC) data returned when none was requested.
    The BIOS may try to access the European Community without synchronization with the operating system.
    These data will be ignored. No further action is necessary; However, you should check with the manufacturer of your computer for an updated BIOS.

    When Windows 7 starts, the icons on the desktop, menu start and records are white then start then normal fill when seen once again, any reason why?

    I used Windows 7 drivers.

    Thank you

    Hey mate,

    I have too many Qosmio F50 and you can change the option if, after hibernate or stand-by the account should be locked or not. As far as I know that this can be changed in power management.

    About this window of Event Viewer, I never heard talk about this and my Qosmio F50 works fairly well with Windows 7. You have installed all the drivers for it? You have yellow exclamation marks in Device Manager?

    I also used Windows 7 drivers, but did you download from the Toshiba page? These drivers are pre-tested and normally should work pretty well.

  • Change the appearance of the windows of the inactive VI

    Hello!

    I'm working on a software that called screw under different and they all open as new windows in front of the main one. The problem is that these windows are usually smaller than the original VI and the amount of orders that you see on the screen is sometimes a bit boring. You would see the VI parent on the region covering the new window. I want to do is to have the parent VI change its brightness or perhaps have a "fog effect" on it so that attracts your attention is the currently active VI. I apologise for the confused explanation, but I don't know how to make me "understandable." I found an article that explains how to change the background color of the VI, however, I have an image as the background of the application, so the color change will have no effect. What I want is something similar to what happens when Windows Vista asks you administrator rights to perform an action, if all remaining screen gets darker and brings attention to the dialog box.

    Thanks in advance for the help!

    Kind regards

    Hello!

    First of all, thanks a lot for your quick help. Unfortunately, I am running LabVIEW 7, so I couldn't find the integrated function of transparency. I checked the tst library and used its transparency Subvi on the inactive window whenever a new window opens.

    I made a few changes to add comments of my research on MSDN about the functions used, so in case anyone feels helpul, here the VI.

    I appreciate the contribution of all.

  • locked Windows XP network connections

    I was struggling for the last 2 weeks with my ip address does not change do not. I've been in contact with my ISP technology support and we found the network connections is locked. When I click on the Connect box icon nothing happens. When I right click the icon and select the State that nothing happens. I can't access one of the parameters. so I uninstalled and reinstalled it and its doing the same thing. I have 2 computers hooked up to the same modem and they another computer's network connections works when I click on the link, it opens a connection status window box. so, how can I unlock or whatever to make it work again? I tried everything I can think of. I have internet access and can get online.

    This problem was caused by a Trojan virus. It spread across my operating system. I had to use a hard drive cleaner and completely erase the hard drive. That took five days to do. When he finally finished, I reinstalled Windows XP. My ISP Bright House gave me another modem, with its own security and firewall so that it will not happen again.

    Thank you very much for the help.

  • 4 - 1215dx the envy Drive 8 locking windows

    I have a HP Envy 4-1215dx that I want to do a factory on after restore Windows 8 would no longer start.

    When my Windows 8 has stopped working I could access is no longer the recovery partitions and the options on my laptop. I popped in a CD of Windows 8 via USB and tried to preform a drink only to get an error saying that I can't do anything on the disc as it was locked. I also tried to download a normal version of windows 8, just to see if it works and found that the application form where to place the facility was empty. I preformed then a check of the HARD disk hardware and both discs came out without any problem. Then, I took the back cover and disconnected the 500 GB HARD drive, which prompted the RAID Manager to ask if I wanted to take off the RAID for the small SSD or to leave it alone, because I don't have a lot of experience setting up the small SSD for working with HARD drive, I left alone. Something that caught my attention was that he says that all information should be destroyed with the exception of the recovery partition.

    So if I destroyed the RAID, could only unlock the SSD for me? That would also open the partition recovery for me as well? This recovery would set the RAID as well?

    Buy the $60 for my PC recovery CD will arrange everything to?

    I've never really messed with RAID before and I'm about to nuke just the 500 GB drive and just reinstall a new version of Windows 8 on it and call it a day, but I'll save it for last. My HDD test I used load windows 8 very well when he was preloaded on the HARD drive, so I know this isn't the PC itself, its what raid which is moving the process here.

    If after you remove the RAID flags on two disks, I can now see the two discs during reinstallation of Windows 8 64. Looks like the only way to solve a Windows 8 drive lock is the destruction of a disc format. Same thing happened on my Lenovo T430 after update BIOS to make it work better with Windows 8 too. This the reader's gaze is a terrible thing, especially when there is no way (or fear as no way I found during my Google searches) to unlock the drive and everything remains intact.

    Thank you BHK6 to confirm that the recovery of $65 dear (Inludes Shipping) disc would replace how to leave the factory. (when I saw the final price for a disc that was initially "free" when I bought the PC at $65, I think I heard my cry of portfolio out in pain just a bit...) Teach to misplace a recovery again disc!)

    I'll be this marking as "sloved" and will now look how configure RAID with WIndows 8 (should be fun). Thanks again, I'll check back periodically to see if anyone at - he found a better way to unlock a Windows 8 hard while keeping the data, as it seems to be triggered by almost anything that messes with the BIOS or the operating system when updating.

  • Lock Windows 7 Pro screen

    I'm doing my lock so that only my work computer or an administrator can unlock. But it has a user button and anyone can hit and use their log in and password to my computer. The problem is that they are under their name and that you download things on the computer that are slowing down my computer. We are open 7 days a week, but I'm here 5 and some of our College kids know log on our company. On previous versions of windows, you can lock that he and no one but yourself or the 'administrator' can connect but windows 7 Professional has a switch user icon when you lock which allows them to connect under another.

    Thanks any help would be great.

    I suspect your implied question is "Ho to prevent the change of user while in the locked state." If yes then you can do this by creating the registry value

    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\HideFastUserSwitching
    (DWord value) and parameters of its data to 1.

    Also notice that the children with the right knowledge and the right tools can break into any machine if they have physical access to it.

  • Firefox opens reduced to a minimum and may not display the window upwards (PC)

    Firefox "opens" when you click on it, but the window does not appear. Hovering over the icon, the window is visible, but will not appear when selected. Uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox; "Parentlock" rebooted, removed and several other fixes.

    Could you send us a screen capture when you are hovering over the icon?

    Otherwise, you can try to start Firefox in Safe Mode.

    1. Close Firefox completely: open the Task Manager, find the firefox.exe process and end it.
    2. Launch Firefox by holding down SHIFT on your keyboard.

    The Firefox window appears normally?
