Hi Tim and Kate,

Well, I don’t know if I will run into this issue, but I would prefer to have a 
password required. If my Mac was ever stolen, or somebody just sees it and 
wants to use it, they cannot get into it without the password, and touch ID 
won’t work for them. If I do experience what you have Kate, I may have to 
change my opinion.

Best,

 

Les

Hi,

 

It sounds like you have the "Require password after sleep or screen saver 
checkbox” checked.  You can find this in System Preferences, Security & 
Privacy, in under the General tab.

 

Later…

Hi Tim!

 

It’s happening about every 5 mins after logging in.  If I am doing email it 
doesn’t interrupt, but if I am listening to music, for example, it definitely 
does interrupt.  Totally annoying!

 

This is happening across all users on this laptop..

 

Thanks,

Cait

Hi,

 

How often is this happening?  That is, every minute or so right after I get 
logged in, or after about 5 minutes, 10 minutes, after I open the lid of the 
laptop?  Just a bit more detail to figure out the best way forward.

 

Later…

Hi,

I am having issues on my Mac..

Basically, the login window for the current user keeps popping up.  This is 
incredibly annoying!  How can I stop this from happening?

Running Big Sur on a late 2013 MacBook Air.

Thanks!
