Auto-lock doesn't work [inconsistent or possibly just slow]

Under Options is Auto Lock activated. It should lock the Beta after 1 Minute. But it has never worked for me. Even after half an hour the family vault is still open and not locked if I return to the app.

  • @dahanbn let me shed some light on how auto lock works. It was made at Windows 8 times and needs to be updated with changes of Windows 10. It checks whether or not to lock app when you resume it. Previously that was enough because apps were suspended the moment they went off screen and resumed when they came back. With Windows 10 rules have changed, apps usually take part of the screen and can be kept alive much longer than before. We should update the code, thanks for reminding of that!

  • @dahanbn Beta 15 now should perform auto lock as expected, regardless whether you are in the app or outside of it.

    Thanks for reminding us about that missing bit!
