I know people will yell at me about Linux on this one.
Whenever my PC is idle for abotu 10 minutes, it automaticlly logs off. How can i make it so it doesnt log off at all?

And sorry for using this name. I keep forgetting this particular PC has it automatically.

Control Panel ->
Power Options ->
Put in Hibernation -> Never
Turn off hard drives -> Never
That should do the trick. Might be different names on your system, I've got teh sweidhs language.

make sure that you have the password disabled for standby and screensaver. if its on every time the screensaver comes on or it goes into standby it will go to the login screen and ask for your password (assuming you have one).

Wow, these didnt help at all.
Im saying that it just automatically logs out. There are no screensaver and it doesnt turn anything off.
After about 10 minutes, it goes to the lohin/welcome screen.

go to where you choose your screensaver and there should be a small box that says something similar to "return to welcome screen" (mine is in swedish so i don't know exactly the words). Uncheck that and you should be fine.

I think i got it. Thre is a checkbox when thre is a screensaver. So i set a screensaver, unchecked the box, then unset the screensaver.
When i was at dinner, the PC didnt go to the welcome screen.
Thanks for trying to help, people.
