How to avoid Windows 7 wake up screen?
When Windows 7 hibernates and then I wake it up, it always shows a screen where I have to click before I can get into the Windows environment. I don't have a password set so this intermediate screen serves no purpose - just one wasted mouse click and an unnecessary wait every time. How do I disable this so that I go from hibernating directly into my desktop without a click?
In control panel go:
- Hardware and sound
- Power settings
- Change plan settings
- Change advanced power settings
- Change 'require password on wakeup' to no
