Password not required after sospension
05-20-2017 03:03 AM

Hi all, after update to windows creator 1703 I experience this strange behavior on my notebook.
After sospension windows start to show me the initial picture and ok.
So as usual I click the mouse button (or press a key) and the screen change to the foreground color but does not required anymore the password! It appears as frozen for a while then it go back to the initial picture and again I press a key but it's a loop... the only thing I can do is to shut down the system and restart.
After a restart I can access windows because it ask me the password, so the problem is only after a sospension.
The only trick I found was to disable to require the password but it's not safe for me of course.
Any help woiuld be very appreciate
Thanks in advance
