win 11 laptop logging out <SOLVED>

How can I stop it from doing this?
Display settings don't have anything about it.

Screen saver changes needed restart - answer

Sorry about the questions. It just logs me out... screen save set for max time and sleep stuff all maxed but it logs out after only a few mins. I am reading stuff and it just goes to the sign in

Disable Screen Saver

Disable Sleep & Hibernate (CMD via Run As Admin) > type POWERCFG -H OFF
Press Enter key. Restart Windows to apply this change.

Set the button functions:
Sleep Button = Do Nothing
Power Button = Shutdown
Close Lid = Do Nothing

Set the time for Display Power-Save / Off to around 10 mins (or more if preferred)

Set all this once when running on Wall Power; then once all set, unplug the wall power and then configure it all again while running on Battery. It will dynamically remember the settings for both; Wall Power and Battery.

There's an option in the sign-on settings that will stop it requesting a password when waking from sleep, that sounds closer to what you're looking for.

I figured it out.

It was the screen saver, didn't realize I had to restart for it to take effect. Don't think earlier windows needed that ?

Using a Screen-Saver is fine, just disable the option for "on resume, display login screen"

That didn't bother me as much as it just switching off while I was reading something.

But yeah thanks, good advice. Were these defaults reversed or has it just been that long since I set up an OS?

This is crazy... I set the power setting for max performance and it turned itself off?

Laptops do that?

Oh looks like the log in thing was set to not show? IDK I toggled it on and off again just to be sure.

May have changed itself with another setting?

Man those reduce carbon footprint settings are garbage ... eco computer ha ha ha ha
