How to disable Windows 10 lock screen password on IDLE only

I would like to configure this windows 10 machine to not ask for a password when resuming from IDLE, but still ask for a password when resuming from STANDBY or HIBERNATE.

The screen needs to turn off after 5 minutes and NOT use a screen saver.

The only information I can find is about disabling the lock screen password entirely - which is not what I want. Whether the lock screen continues to show or not is relevant as long as it doesn't require a password.

Version is Windows 10 Pro. It is also connected to a SBS2011 domain.


Using gpedit, set the "Allow users to select when a password is required when resuming from connected standby" policy to "Enabled" under "Computer\Administrative Templates\System\Logon\"

OR

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System] "AllowDomainDelayLock"=dword:00000001

In my case, after enabling this policy, the screen just stays on (ignoring my screen timeout setting) presumably until the sleep timer triggers. I am unable to find a location to set the 'Require a Password after the display is off for...' timer that was previously available in Windows 8.1 Accounts>Sign-in Options.


Just wanted to share my workaround... I worked off of windows 8.1 settings to change the lockout value in the registry ...

In your registry, navigate to: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]

Then change the value to the desired timeout period (use Decimal to specify the time in seconds). I have it set to 6 hours "DelayLockInterval"=dword:00005460" (21600 decimal)

My workaround is based off of what was posted here for windows 8.1:
