    Hello,
    You can set the policy using the GPO, I found this link, following this Microsoft article will solve the current issue.

    Hi，anonymous user

    Once Local Group Policy Editor is up and running, pull down the Actions menu and select the Filter Options command. When you see the Filter Options dialog box, select the Enable Requirements Filters check box, and then select the Windows 8 operating systems check box,

    Now navigate down the Local Computer Policy tree to the All Settings folder in either the User Configuration branch or the Computer Configuration branch and you see that the number of settings has been filtered down

    To disable the lock screen in Windows 8, navigate down the Local Computer Policy tree to the Computer Configuration | Administrative Templates | Control Panel | Personalization folder and there you'll find the Do not display the lock screen setting

    You'll find the Do not display the lock screen setting in the Personalization folder.
    After you double click the setting you'll see the configuration page and will need to select the Enabled radio button, then click OK and close the Local Group Policy Editor.
