Do not ask me to add password to this backup laptop. It uses Windows 10 Home Version 10.0.19043. Following is user John's Sign-in options screen.

Why does mine below differ? Why does mine lack "Require sign-in" and the dropbox for "When PC wakes up from sleep"?

  • My screen shot (first above) is true for Windows 10 Pro latest and Windows 11 Pro. What version of Windows do you have? Home or Pro? (or maybe Enterprise or Education)? – John Dec 08 '21 at 00:31
  • @John pls see my edited post. –  Dec 11 '21 at 21:35
  • @ElVaf - The answer to this requires you to set a password. There isn’t another answer to your question, as the option, requires a password in order to exist. – Ramhound Dec 12 '21 at 00:58

The option will not be listed if the user account does not have a password set.

Why does mine lack "Require sign-in" and the Dropbox for "When PC wakes up from sleep"?

The account you are using does not have a password set. My suggestion would be to set a password, then configure the account as the default account (allowing the machine to automatically be logged into), thus allowing you to set the option to whatever option you want.

  • Both Ramhound and I have suggested using passwords. No password in an Admin User (The Windows first user is always admin) is a gaping security hole – John Dec 08 '21 at 01:26
