windows 7 - How to disable the welcoming screen for when PC wakes up



Windows 7 (x64) has a blue welcome screen (blue grass picture) which shows my user icon in the center. After PC sleeps and wakes up, this screen is shown. How do I skip it, and not have to press the user icon?



Answer



Go into the control panel, power options. Click the link "require a password on wakeup".


require a password on wakeup


Click the "change settings" link, select "don't require a password" and lastly "save changes".


require a password on wakeup


You can still press win+L before putting the computer to sleep, if you actually want to see the login screen when it wakes up. This would protect you if you have a password set.
