Let’s get started.

Why Should You Disable Windows 11 Lock Screen?

The experience can be fixed easily by Microsoft by allowing to type the password directly on the lock screen. But think about this, why is there a lock screen on your PC in the first place? It’s probably useful for tablet devices, but most people don’t have Windows tablets. More people believe the earth is flat than use Windows tablets. For most people, the lock screen’s only purpose is to look beautiful with Windows Spotlight wallpapers and to add another step to logging into our PCs. And that’s why your life would be one click easier if you just disable Windows 11 lock screen.

How to Disable Windows 11 Lock Screen with Registry Edit

There are several ways to disable the Windows 11 lock screen, but none are quite official. That is to say, Windows 11 does not offer this as a feature in the Settings or anywhere else. You can disable the screen from locking once you’ve logged in, but you can’t disable the lock screen altogether. The situation is the same on Windows 10 as well. A simple registry hack is a universal way to do this. Because the other method involves using the Group Policy Editor, which is not available for Windows 11 Home. The Home edition is what you typically get if you’ve ever bought a PC with Windows. Editor’s Note: Making changes to the Windows registry is risky and can result in crashes and other unwanted results. It is advised that you don’t change things you’re unsure of. When your PC boots up again, you will have disabled the Windows 11 lock screen. Your PC should boot directly to the login screen. The lock screen also appears every time your PC is locked due to inactivity. And then you have to get rid of it before you can type in your password and get in. With this registry hack on, you can directly start typing your password when you return to your locked PC.

Remove Blurred Background on Windows Login Screen

Finally, you got rid of the useless lock screen and can now get into your computer faster. However, Windows 10 or 11 were designed to have a lock screen. There is even a dedicated settings page for customizing the Windows lock screen. Since you’ve disabled the lock screen, you can no longer change the lock screen wallpaper. And since the login screen is the blurred lock screen wallpaper with an input field, you also can’t change the background on the login screen. If you go to the lock screen settings page, it will say, “Some of these settings are managed by your organization.” The wallpaper controls will not be accessible. If you want, you can completely remove the blurred wallpaper from the login screen, though. For that, go to Settings > Personalization > Lock screen. Here, toggle off Show the lock screen background picture on the sign-in screen. Once you remove the lock screen and blurred background, you will see a minimal login screen on your Windows PC. No more useless images and lock screen slideshows before unlocking your PC.
