General Computer Support / Re: windows 10 login delyed 5 minutes

Setting fast boot on/off had no effect.
The Event Viewer listed one error at boot up time: Event ID 10016 - DistributedCOM
I fixed this error with the procedure given here: https://www.windows10forums.com/articles/event-id-10016-distributedcom.47/
It also had no effect on the login delay.

General Computer Support / windows 10 login delyed 5 minutes

« on: January 04, 2017, 11:01:23 am »

My pc is an HP envy 17 notebook pc, running Windows 10 Home, version 1607, build 14393.576, with 16 GB ram, 64-bit OS.
All startup apps are disabled (under System Configuration Services and Task Manager Startup), except for the Microsoft services.

The problem is this:
When I turn my computer on I can see the HP logo with dots circling.
When lock screen shows up with background pic and time and date, I press enter key to go to login screen.
The login screen is set up with a different background color, and it opens with no password prompt. After about 30 sec it returns to the lock screen.

After waiting about 5 minutes, I can press the enter key, and the login screen opens with a password  prompt. I have tried waiting less that 5 minutes at the lock screen to return to the login screen, but there is no password prompt until 5 minutes have passed.
After entering the password, the computer behaves normally.

I ran Windows Repair (3.9.12), but the login delay was not fixed.
