    The patch is no longer needed with the latest build 15063, so development stopped. To remove the lockscreen in 15603 I use this in cmd line w/ admin:
    Code:
    reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Personalization" /v NoLockScreen /t REG_DWORD /f /d 1
    The 2 only solutions I can see for you is upgrade to 15063, or use a restore point to rollback the updates.

    EDIT: if you only have one account without password, and you got rid of the lock screen but Windows requests you to click on "sign-in" after supension/hibernation, use this trick:
    Go to Settings -> Accounts -> Sign-in options, add a password, change menu then come back (for ex. click on "E-mail and App Accounts" then "Sign-in options" again), change "Require Sign-in" to Never, then remove password. I tried to monitor for registry changes but couldn't figure out where this setting is stored.

    Okay, thanks! Does your solution also remove it when you do fresh startup?
    I guess I can wait until 15063 comes for my PC, cause I cannot defer the updates for forever. I think I have a restore point that could help to roll back, but yesterday - after trying to solve an odd 'no audio' problem - system restore didn't work. The solution for that would be to rename the WindowsApps folder in Safe Mode and then try again.. I did that once when LogonControllerv6 ceased to work, but anyway - that's another topic.

    Yes it does. My laptop which only has one account without password boots directly to desktop, whether from restart, shutdown, sleep or hibernate.
    So, to disable the lock screen:
    Code:
    reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Personalization" /v NoLockScreen /t REG_DWORD /f /d 1
    And to disable the sign-in button:
    Code:
    reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Power\PowerSettings\0e796bdb-100d-47d6-a2d5-f7d2daa51f51" /v ACSettingIndex /t REG_DWORD /f /d 0
    reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Power\PowerSettings\0e796bdb-100d-47d6-a2d5-f7d2daa51f51" /v DCSettingIndex /t REG_DWORD /f /d 0

    Hmm, but I'd still like to be able to quickly type my password, hit enter and go. Just in case someone other than me finds the laptop and decides to open the cover, you know..

    So use only the lock screen tweak and ignore the sign-in tweak :D

    I waited a bit, but the update arrived and the install went fine. I'm back to the login screen I prefer and it worked just like you said, thank you! :)

    Hello,

    recently I had to uninstall update package KB4034674, because my system developed an issue where right-clicking on the taskbar on any of my open applications never worked or had a very long delay. Also, left-clicking on the tray icons (power, network and volume) had the same lag. The thing is, after uninstalling that update, my lock screen has come back, even though I have that setting in the registry as it should. Anyway, I'd prefer to have my taskbar respond correctly anytime over the lock screen being disabled, but I'd still like to go back to the way it was: not having to click anything to go to the password screen.
    What can I do?
    Win 10 Pro x64 version 1703 OS build 15063.540

    Thanks,
    zil

    Well it did in my case. Add password to account, change "Require Sign-in" to "Never", remove account password. I use suspend/hibernate every day and I never see a lock screen nor a login screen.

    unfortunatelly on my case (win 10 home) I cannot change the "Never" to "something" when I come back it is never again... maybe with all these registry edits I have made it stacks!

    I still don't get it.. I have build 15063. Doing a cold boot brings the lock screen, once I'm in the desktop and then lock, the screen is gone (as I want it to be). The registry setting is there. What should I do to get rid of the lock screen during a fresh startup as well?

    Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Personalization

    And change "NoLockScreen" value to 1.

    Note: Make sure you backup registry enteries before trying above steps.

    the reg option doesn't work in 20H2, it's ignored.

    gpedit doesn't work either.
