All of a sudden this screen appeared: "This computer is
in use and has been locked. Only the administrator can
unlock it. User name and password required." I don't
want this screen to appear. I was able to get rid of the
password but can't find a way to eliminate the pop-up.
Thanks
Del

Hi Del,
In your display properties have you enabled the screen saver 'on resume
password protect'? If you have and do not want the computer to lock the
workstation/return to the welcome screen when the screen saver is interupted
you will want to uncheck that.
