The machine is still running, the network is still active, etc. Try this: start a youtube video, keep the speakers on, then lock the machine. The video will just keep going. The computer is still ... computing. The network is still active. Everything is still running, even though you can't see it. | |

| Aug 10, 2020 at 13:38 | comment | added | drake035 | I'm confused, can remote control still occur then? Meaning can somebody use Chrome on my machine, see me last pages visited, visit a website and use saved passwords, things like that? | |
