No more start up screen.

Before I, when ever I start up my laptop, or open it up and wake it up from sleep, it would go to a blue screen with my user picture, and I needed to typed in a password to unlock it. Now it goes right to the desktop. I don't know what changed, but I want it to go to the lock screen with my password. Can anyone help me?

Type "Sleep" into windows search.

Then select "Require A Password When Windows Wakes"

Make sure your settings are set to require a password.

Thanks it worked!

Have you removed the password from your account?

I did have a pass set, but for some reason my computer wouldn't lock. Luckily the above user saved the day.

You're welcome.... Glad it's all sorted for you.

Glad you got it all figured out. For future reference, here is a resource that describes how to change power plan options / settings - How do I change the password requirement when my computer wakes from sleep?.
