    PC Sleep options password required?


    Can you guys do a favor for me and check in Settings/Accounts/Sign-in Options and see if you have the same red warning text that policies are set to require a password when PC wakes from Sleep and the options are grayed-out? Because in my Group Policy settings I have all Sleep options set to Not Configured.

    My question is, are these policies set by default even when not setting them in Group Policy?

    Please see attached images.

    Thanks!

    I don't have the red warning text.

    Any chance this device is part of a domain or work network ?

    Not on a domain, it is a standalone. However, and I should of had mentioned this before, is that I am running Enterprise. As for your case, do you even have a Windows logon password set? Which edition of Windows 10 are you running?

    Yes most definitely, all devices have passwords.

    I know it does not keep anyone with knowledge out of my system, basically just blocks honest people. Windows 10 Pro. 1809
