Widows 11 Locks Me Out After 10 Minutes of Inactivity

Widows 11 Locks Me Out After 10 Minutes of Inactivity. I am not using a screen saver. I can be sitting at my desk eating lunch and it goes to the lock screen. How do I prevent this?

    Go to Personalization -> Lock Screen -> Screen saver settings.

    In the Screen Saver Settings window, ensure the screen saver is either disabled or the wait time is set to a longer duration.

    Uncheck "On resume, display logon screen" if you do not want to be prompted to enter your password when resuming from the screen saver.
