disabling windows 2012 R2 lock screen, the screen keeps being locked

I haven't test it yet.

but here is something you can change (copy / paste from above link)

unlocked the missing Power Settings feature in Server 2012.
  1.       Open the following registry key     a.       HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\7516b95f-f776-4464-8c53-06167f40cc99\8EC4B3A5-6868-48c2-BE75-4F3044BE88A7   2.       Set the following value     a.       Attributes => 2
  3.       Now open Control Panel>Power Options>Change Plan Settings>Change Advanced Power Settings     a.       The new Display section “Console lock display off timeout” is now available.     b.      Configure your “Plugged in” value accordingly (0 to disable) – I haven’t tested to see if the monitor sleep setting still applies when the screen is locked.
