I tried installing it but it doesn't seem to install. I enabled developer mode in case it required that but no dice.

I have those entries, but "Install failed on 06/05/2017"

Same response for both entries. Wonder why 2 with the same name, but 3KB diff. size.

the date is dd/mm/yyyy format.

Not yet ready ?????

ost tablets do no differentiate between screen off and sleep mode and only use sleep mode in effect.

On a pc, screen off mode leaves pc running but on a tablet, they just sleep. The tutorial option which involves task scheduler should work but I has issues post AU with it.

I have now upgraded to CU version and since .250 upgrade, I can get rid of the lock screen using simpler options in tutorial.

So image backup tablet with Macrium Reflect Free to sd card or usb stick (long story but trust me Macrium is the RIGHT tool here from tests I did a while back).

Then upgrade to CU version, and then you will be able to get rid of it.

'Done and Dusted'!!!
@Brinks reg tweak worked! Thank You very much! :)

Windows 10 Home Creators Update - No Lock Screen!

Five App updates here, (your mileage may vary), Skype, People, Maps, Camera, Mail and Calendar.

(Check your local Store!)

Microsoft People, Windows Maps and Windows Camera get a touch of 'Neon'!

Now I think I see why you don't want a Lock screen, Edwin. It's a tablet that you use at church while multitasking and you don't want to keep signing in after it sleeps? Is that it? Double tap the screen and go? (assuming it has that feature)

It's a Local Account, so I don't have to sign in but, I don't want to stand there in the middle of a Service looking like a fool flailing my arms about trying to flick the Lock Screen up on that huge 11.6" screen! (sometimes you miss!)

Doesn't have the screen double tap feature but, the Home button is in close proximity to my thumb, (mistake in my previous post about the Home/Power buttons locations), which restores the screen as I left it after timeout; the Power button, which is on the side, close to my forefinger will restore the screen as I left it whether after timeout or manually turning the screen off.

I leave the timeout at 60 seconds to conserve battery power.

Happy the Windows 10 CU works on this device and the Lock Screen is disabled on 'wake', boot or restart! Thanks everyone.

Contacts on the 'People Bar' have a touch of 'Neon' too.
