Latop locks out automatically after inactivity (plugged in)
Hello,
Recently I have found that my laptop computer locks (displays login screen) after a set amount of time. I found this strange as I have disabled hybrid sleep in my power settings, disabled sleep for both battery and plug in settings, and disabled the screensaver and require login after entering settings in personalization. I have never had this problem for the previous 2 years or so I've owned this laptop, and I'm wondering if I have malware. The computer I am having issues with is the system that my profile is listed as using.
PS: If this post is in the wrong section please redirect me.
EDIT: My computer does not ever sleep or go into a screensaver, but the display does turn off and I have found that upon moving the mouse or pressing the key I am prompted with a login screen. If you need additional info, please specify it, because quite honestly I have no idea as to what the possible causes of this problem are.
Thanks
