I don't want to get the of the lock screen. If I hit Windows+L I want it to go directly to the lock screen. Instead, it goes to a background screen that I have to click or otherwise interact with to get to the lock screen - I can't just start typing my password! The same thing happens if I power up my computer out of sleep.
I have looked under Settings -> Lock Screen
and I can see where I can change the picture for this background, but not how to skip this screen entirely.
I don't know what this extra background screen is called, but I want to get rid of it! How do I do this? I used to have it configured this way, but when I applied the Windows Anniversary Update yesterday it reverted to putting this annoying extra screen in the way.

registry edit should help. See y'days post on this topic How can I make Windows 10 show the password textbox at startup, rather than that picture with the time & date? - Super User
