Group policy setting pc lock screen

Question

1、The group policy is set as follows

After applying Group Policy, the client still locks the screen after 10 minutes. How can I break the 10-minute limit? Thanks

Answer 1

1.This GPO is a computer configuration, so it needs to be linked to the OU where the machine is located instead of the OU where the user is located.

We can run gpresult /h C:\temp\result.html on the machine to determine whether GPO is an application

2. "Interactive logon: Computer inactivity limit. Windows notices that the logon session is inactive. If the inactivity time exceeds the inactivity limit, the screen saver will run, thereby locking the session.

But you did not set the screen saver time in the user settings, I suspect this is the cause of the problem.

Answer 2

Thank you, I did not set the screen saver timeout，problem solved

Answer 3

Sorry, there is one more question to ask, the setting is not found in the group policy, turn off the setting of screen time, thank you

Answer 4

computer configuration\administrative template\System\Power Management\Sleep Settings:
Specify the system sleep timeout (on battery)
Specify the system sleep timeout (plugged in)

This policy setting allows you to specify the period of inactivity before Windows transitions the system to sleep. If you enable this policy setting, you must provide a value, in seconds, indicating how much idle time should elapse before Windows transitions to sleep. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, users control this setting. If the user has configured a slide show to run on the lock screen when the machine is locked, this can prevent the sleep transition from occuring. The "Prevent enabling lock screen slide show" policy setting can be used to disable the slide show feature.

Hello, thank you very much for your reply, the sleep time can be set through Group Policy, but how to set the screen off through Group Policy, thank you
