    Just go to Settings> Display, and adjust your Lock Screen Setting to whatever time delay you want.

    TIP: 30 minutes works for me...

    Press the windows key > type change screen saver > uncheck the On resume, display login screen.

    If you want to keep that function but just increase the time it takes to request your password you can set the wait time to something larger like 30 minutes.
