How to disable the lock screen using Registry Editor
1. Press “Window key + R” on your keyboard to launch the Run bar.
2. In the Run bar, type
3. Click “Yes” once the UAC asks you for access.
4. From the Registry Editor folders, go to this path:
5. If you can’t find the folder “Personalisation,” you need to create the folder first to keep the DWORD “NoLockScreen.”
6. Right-click the “Windows” folder and then hover the mouse to “New” and choose “Key.” Label the key “Personalisation.”
7. Right-click the “Personalisation” folder and hover the mouse to “New.” Choose the “DWORD (32-bit) value” and you’ll see the new value in the folder.
8. Label the DWORD “NoLockScreen.”
9. Right-click “NoLockScreen” and click “Modify.” Change the value from 0 to 1 and click OK.
10. Exit the Registry Editor and reboot/restart your PC. You have successfully tweaked the lock screen if your screen shows you the user login instead of the lock screen.
However, in this tutorial, my first attempt was unsuccessful because of this one letter that the system was unable to acknowledge: “S”
