Windows 10 puts some really interesting photos on your lock screen, but if you're using a desktop or laptop, there's no benefit to having that screen appear in the first place. Every time your computer boots or wakes from sleep, you have to click your mouse button or swipe up to make the lockscreen disappear before you get hit with a login prompt. You can save time and a click by disabling the lock screen and going straight to the login screen in Windows 10. Here's how1. Open the registry editor. Hit CTRL + R, then type regedit into the prompt and hit Enter. Click Yes if you receive a warning from User Account Control.
2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows by opening the various folders in the tree.
3.
Create a new registry key called Personalization if one doesn't already
exist. To create the key, right click in the right pane, select Key
from the menu and then rename the key to "Personalization." - See more
