GPO will on behalf us to do that, it also forces End-User cannot change the configuration. That’s it, let’s try.įorce locking by using Domain Group Policy Object (GPO)įor enterprise you cannot manual setup on each Computer, it will take a bunch of time to do. It will automatically lock Windows 10 for you if you’ve been inactive too long. On the Screen Saver Settings, enable a Blank screensaver and time to wait is one minute of my testing. Right-click on the Computer Desktop > Personalize > on the left panel click Lock screen, scroll down you will see the Screen saver settings You can set up on either UI or using command and also can force by Domain Group Policy Object (GPO).īasic and immediately lock your computer by pressing both Win + L Auto Lock screen using Screen Saver As far as I can see my only option is to delete the local profile.There are many ways to do that. I consider this a bug, since even if the settings were enforced by Exchange, the setting should be removed after removing from control panel. So basically it is ignoring any setting in personalization, and is fixed at 1 minute with screen lock. Locks the screen, even though this is not set either. But if I change the screensaver timeout value, as soon as I go back into the settings, it is back at 1 minute.Īctually I managed to get it to say 15 minutes in there by editing the local GPO (User ConfigAdmin TemplatesPersonalizationScreen saver timeout) but even when it says 15 minutes in there, it comes on after 1 minute.
I got so fed up with it I removed the Exchange account from mail app and rebooted. I believe it was change by the mail app, enforcing Exchange ActiveSync policies to 1 minute (even though the server does not enforce 1 minute on a phone). I am unable to change the screensaver timeout in Windows 8 Pro RTM.
