I went back to displayfusion and re-enabled it and it seems to be working now. Definitely a windows problem it looks like, but I didn't change anything. I'm sure related to Windows updates... ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#9 Mon, 27 Apr 2020 23:05:17 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#9 DisplayFusion This may be a problem with the march update.
My windows10 pro update broke so it wouldn't go into lock screen after screen saver. Even when DF was not running.

\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
look for Inactivity_TimeoutSecs change it to # of seconds 1200 for 2 minutes
Then the regular timeouts set in screensaver will work

At least it did for me. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#8 Tue, 24 Mar 2020 15:57:07 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#8 DisplayFusion Thanks for sending the debug log over! I'm not seeing anything in it about applying the lock screen though. Did you try to apply the settings after enabling debug logging? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#7 Sat, 21 Mar 2020 23:29:41 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#7 DisplayFusion Something else I noticed that I think is worthy of note. When I uncheck the box for displayfusion to manage my lock screen wallpaper, if I go to the Windows setting for the wallpaper, it doesn't let me change anything there and says the settings are managed by my organization (it's a home computer).

It did also say that when displayfusion was managing the lock screen, but I figured that's expected behavior. However, It managed my wallpaper too and Windows still lets me change that. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#6 Sat, 21 Mar 2020 03:54:15 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#6 DisplayFusion Oh just about a second. Not entirely sure if it was always like that, just thought it would be a clue as to why the lock screen wallpaper isn't reflecting what's in the settings. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#5 Thu, 19 Mar 2020 21:54:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#5 DisplayFusion How long does it take for the taskbar to reappear after unlocking? Sometimes it can take a few seconds to reappear, depending on how busy the PC is. Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#4 Mon, 16 Mar 2020 16:16:34 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#4 DisplayFusion just want to follow up with this. I haven't actively made any changes to the display fusion settings to cause this.
I notice after unlocking the account, the task bar has to spin up again too as though locking the screen kills display fusion. Not sure if that's what's happening here. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#3 Thu, 12 Mar 2020 03:15:43 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/lock-screen-setting-not-working/?ID=437b7f71-9ff4-4f85-906d-b6598596e395#3 DisplayFusion Attached

I double-checked my config, it's the same as it has been. ]]>
