Disable sleep in:

Control Panel > System > Power Options > Change Plan > Put Computer to Sleep

set to Never, for more info see this page.

If above not worked, try solution from this post, it says:

at first you must set value of Attributes = dword: 00000002 in

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\7516b95f-f776-4464-8c53-06167f40cc99\8EC4B3A5-6868-48c2-BE75-4F3044BE88A7]

and then in Power Options > Advanced Power Settings in the Display item appears Console lock display off timeout in which we set the necessary time.

  • Thank you, it worked sometime but then reversed to default automatically. Now I just fully disabled lock screen app by gpedit, and the problem is solved.
