Is it possible to lock screen without screen turn off? For example, here is my settings:

enter image description here

I wanna automatically lock screen after 5 minutes, but display should not off (only after 30 minutes).

I thought "Sign-in options - Require sign-in" option responses for this:

enter image description here

But this does not work — screen is locked only after 30 minutes along turn off.

  • Open Settings.
  • Click on Personalization.
  • Click on Lock screen.
  • Click the Screen saver settings link near the bottom.
  • Set a screensaver to run after x minutes.
  • Click the checkbox "On resume, display logon screen".
  • Make sure your user account has a password.

  • +1 so glad that this question and answer exist. Amazing how out-of-the-way and counter-intuitive/illogical this setting is (and how insecure it is that disabling or delaying screen-offing and computer-sleeping leads to the computer also remaining unlocked).
