I'm trying to disable the useless Win 10 lock screen using the method of creating the following registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Personalization]
"NoLockScreen"=dword:00000001
Everywhere I search for on the web (including Superuser) this is the method used, but still my lock screen is there.
I'm using Win 10 Home, on Creator's Update.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Answer
As @LevenTech has written, the feature was moved to Enterprise in Anniversary Update. For the Creators Update this was changed via the update KB4016240.
Addressed issue that prevents the lock screen from being disabled
using Group Policy on Professional SKUs.
Make sure you have the latest Update installed (As of 2017-06-01 this is KB4020102 (OS Build 15063.332). The update only mentions Professional, so it may also work for Home, but I haven't updated my tablet with Win10 Home to 1703, so I can't test it.
