No need for credentials after waking from sleep mode.
A Windows 11 Pro work computer configured on a domain cannot be set to prompt for logon after waking from sleep. To unlock the computer after it has been locked using "Win+L," you need to press ctrl+alt+delete.
The only relevant setting available is: "When should Windows require you to sign in again after being away?" It has been set to "When PC wakes up from sleep," and the only alternative option is "never." This configuration does not involve using a Microsoft account.
I have dedicated many hours to troubleshoot and search for a solution, including utilizing Google search, but unfortunately, I have not been able to find a resolution.

"Require users to press Ctrl+Alt+Delete" is controlled by a specific Group Policy setting, not just the "sign-in after sleep" timeout. When this setting is enabled, Windows prompts for Ctrl+Alt+Delete after wake, regardless of the "sign-in after sleep" configuration.
