I have an Air with the M1 chip and using Tahoe 26.1. It has recently gone to Lock Screen after a few minutes. I do not want lock screen at all. I've gone to "Lock Screen' and set it to Never and Never. Still goes to lock screen after a few minutes. I am stumped. Please help an old guy out..:)

Original Title: Lock Screen Issue
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 26.1
The Lock Screen setting controls display sleep and the password requirement. If you are talking about the screen saver, that is controlled in System Settings > Wallpaper > Screen Saver (button). Set that to Never.

Tahoe enable FileVault by default so look in privacy and security settings to turn that off. FileVault disables the ability to not require a password after sleep and prevent it from not going to the lock screen after a certain amount of time. However, you shouldn’t be able to select anything in that pop-up menu if FileVault is enabled.
Didn't work for me, but appreciate your reply. Thanks!
