On more than one occasion we left the computer on and were absent for a while. It may happen that at that time there are people nearby who want to look at the computer, something we do not like. Fortunately, in Windows 10 we have a good solution to this situation. We can automatically lock Windows 10.
In this way, by blocking it, we make sure that nobody will be able to access the computer. Since the equipment is going to be blocked automatically when we let it use it. So no person will be able to access the computer and look through our files.
We currently have several ways to get Windows 10 to crash. Actions that are done instantly. This is just what we want. Because our plan is to schedule an automatic lock. Although there are several ways, the fastest and simplest of all is to activate screensaver.
In this way, thanks to this function, allows us to show on the screen a drawing or motif that is loaded in the system. But, no one will be able to access the equipment in our absence. To activate this screen saver function we have to carry out the following steps:
- Right click on an empty part of the desktop
- Click on the option customize that appears in the drop-down menu
- A new window opens. We look for the lock screen section in the same
- We go down and look for an option called "screen saver settings".
- We choose a screen protector that we want it to come out when there is no activity and also we set the time we want it to take time to jump the same.
- Select the box that says show login screen on resume
By selecting this box we make sure that no one can enter, since the moment the computer detects activity again, we will be asked for the access password. So only we can be the ones who can enter this information.
As you can see, the automatic blocking of Windows 10 is very easy to activate. In this way you can have the peace of mind that no one is going to enter the computer if you are absent.
