dankduke5 is on a distinguished road

Default vista makes me click my username after screen saver and being inactive

so this shold be a basic fix.

my computers screen saver goes on after 10 minutes....once i go away for like 15 minutes and come back and move the mouse my computer says locking and makes me click my user name to log-in. (i have no password set-up for my user name)...

how do i remve this so when i come back to my computer it just goes to where i was and not make me wait to unlock etc.

i beleve there is a check box under the screen saver page that you can uncheck
it's called on resume, display logon screen.

Right click on Desktop>Personalize. Select Screensaver.

Remove the password protection.
It is called On Resume, password protect.

Philbar is very close.
