Hi All
not sure if correct forum so feel fee to move.
As per one of my previous posts i have let the wife loose with a spare laptop with Win8 on it, not sure if she's hating the laptop more than me at the moment so please help before the explosion comes.
1. Need to stop the laptop switching from the start screen to the lock screen when she leaves the pc for a couple of minutes.
2. she's getting really fed up with having to enter her password everytime she goes back to use the pc.
I have gone into PC Settings, clicked users and wanted to change the sign in options there is a message there saying "Any user who has a password must enter it when waking this PC"
underneath that in orange writing is
"Security policies on this PC are preventing you from changing this setting" the Change icon is greyed out
Please can someone tell me how to change this before i end up in hospital.
I must say this is the most infuriating piece of software i've ever used and i thought Vista was bad when it was released. I took another spare laptop into work yesterday to let a few people have a play with Win8, didn't know some of the women could swear so much, overall concensus of the 20 people who had a play was "What the F**K"
Please can someone help before the neigbours start to complain about the screaming.
