These can be accessed from the Notifications tray near the clock on your Taskbar. If you fall into the former group, here's how to make yours do the same: Step 1.įirst, visit the Windows 10 sign-in settings. In this case, the default Windows 10 setting does require you to sign in when you wake your device up. This is not the case if you have a Windows 10 2-in-1, convertible, Surface, and or tablet device. This is because on Windows 10 laptop devices Windows 10 is, by default, set to never ask you to sign in if you've been away for a while - which includes the period after a laptop wakes up from sleep. Īnyway, I'm doing a full upgrade to sandy bridge later this month, and I'm going to do a full re-instillation of win7 (64 bit this time) anyway.Your power settings in the Control Panel may indicate that they are set to put the computer to sleep after you close the lid, but the login screen doesn't appear.
I simply went into WinXP again and retraced my steps to get it working again, but my system is still running on quite low security. Unsure which fix solved the problem (corrupted recycle bin or permissions), I removed 'Everyone' from the permissions list from within Win7 and restarted. Bad idea in any other circumstances I know, but I was pretty desperate.Īnyway, I booted up the Win7 hard drive, and it worked. While I was on XP, I reset the permissions on the Win7 drive to grant everyone full access. I thought I'd investigate a bit further, and deleted the offending folder from the root of my 7 drive. I went into my parallel winXP instillation, and while deleting a file it reported that the recycle bin on my Win7 hard drive was corrupted. Hey guys, I just thought I'd report back and let you know that I've finally got it sorted. If anyone could shed some light on the situation or suggest what the problem could be, I would be immensely grateful. I am able to boot into linux (off my removable HDD) and windows XP (from my secondary internal HDD), so I am led to believe it is a corrupted file or dodgy setting within Windows 7 rather than a hardware fault. I've tried booting in safe mode only to encounter exactly the same problem, and have no previous restore points (which I know is a big mistake).ĭue to it not starting in safe mode either, I tried to replace the winlogon.exe file from another Windows 7 instillation to no avail - I still get the same problem.
I've tried all keyboard shortcuts and random clicks to no avail - it stays on that screen for hours with occasional HDD activity. When I boot up my computer, it displays the animated windows7 logo as normal, but where it would normally display the login screen all I get is a blank screen with the mouse cursor.
Hi everyone, first time post here so bear with me
