    started a couple days ago. everytime i put my computer to sleep i come to a Environmental background page (beaches and forests and such, changes each time) then i have to click to make that go away, then i have to click Sign-in (i don't have a password and i disabled password in netplwiz).



    What gives? I never had to do this before. I prefer just clicking a button on my keyboard and my desktop popping up i don't like having to click through 2 separate pages. How do i fix this?

    Set you power settings to never sleep. Sleep causes so many problems coming out of sleep and sometimes computers won't wake from sleep. Set your computer to never sleep and also your monitor. Just turn it off when not using your computer.
    I would also run ADW Cleaner about once a month.
    I always run netplwiz on my PC's and boot straight to the deaktop.

    If you don't turn your computer off, Windows can't install ongoing vital updates.

    Ya I like sleep because I don't have a SSD yet and also if i'm doing a bunch of stuff and wan't to come back to my work later in the day I like having everything up where I left it.

    I shut down my computer regularly too.


    Why does Microsoft change your system settings randomly all the time in windows updates so lame.

    In Windows 10 when you agree to the eula, Microsoft can do what they like and you haven't any recourse.
    Microsoft controls your PC's.
    That's why I rolled back to Windows7 SP1 on three computers.
    Windows7 does everything I need and more and supported till 2020 at the moment unless Microsoft change their mind
    which is prob likely.
    Microsoft are now saying Windows7 is unstable to scare everyone to move to Windows 10
    What a lot of crapola.

    Right click your desktop and choose personalize. Then click on screen saver in the bottom right hand of the screen. Then uncheck on resume display login screen.

    I think it is more: Control panel, Control Panel Options, Power Options, and then click open "Require Password on Wakeup" and check "Don't require Password on Wakeup"
    then do "Save Changes" at bottom of box.
