Hello and thank you for taking the time looking at this.

I have 2 users that have upgraded to new Surface books which come with Windows 10 pro installed, these two computers are the only two out of 100+ that when screen locked they lose all of the connections (RDP, QuickBooks, Prophix, Outlook, etc.) upon unlocking the screen the user is required to re-log into these.

{Solutions tried}

Tried changing the power settings to not shut off any devices (NIC) on sleep, lock, hibernate. (No change)
Tried a Regedit change that was described in a posting similar to this on the forums here. (No change)
Tried Adapter settings>Configure to adjust power settings management there, but was no option. (No change)

Any help on this would be fantastic, Im ready to downgrade them both to Windows 7 here next week since the problem is costing too much time.

Thanks in advance
 
This is how Windows 10 works. It is a safety feature and I don't think that you can disable it.

Your post indicated that you are interested in installing Windows 7 on to these computers. If these computers came with Windows 10 they might not be Windows 7 compatible, and the price of Windows 7 licenses might be pretty expensive just to bypass one safety feature.
 


Thank you much for the reply, This feature is horrible for the way we RDP into so many workstations throughout the country all day and will not hinder us much to purchase the $139.00 OEM disk. I would have to think that all drivers would be backwards compatible for Windows 7, but if not there is always the option of returning the computers. Again thank you much for the reply and if anyone else has a possible solution please feel free to reply since we will more than likely be downgrading or returning by next week.
