I would like to disable the lock screen after disconnecting from a remote desktop session in Windows 10.
Either natively, or with something like a .exe shortcut to disconnect from the session on the target machine.

In the end of your RDP session, open the Command prompt as Admin and:
tscon 1 /dest:console
when conected to the local console (using the /admin)

If i'm not mistaken, I think that will work on Windows 8.1 and backwards. I tried that, and getting this: "SessionID 1 not found". – Thorstein Nilsen – 2016-01-25T20:27:14.950
Strange... It should work: https://techjourney.net/remote-desktop-connection-without-locking-remote-computer-session-on-disconnect/

That was it! Perfect, thank you a whole bunch and have a great day! – Thorstein Nilsen – 2016-01-26T16:55:40.210
What do you mean by “disable”? Do you want Windows to automatically log in again after the remote session disconnects? – Daniel B – 2016-01-25T10:14:27.720
To clarify; when i disconnect from remote session, the lock screen on the target computer appears. I would either like to automatically log in again, like you say - or to disable the lock screen. – Thorstein Nilsen – 2016-01-25T20:26:17.873
You can’t disable the lock screen. The session will be disconnected from the console (the “real” PC) when you connect via RDP. This, in turn, brings up the lock screen, were you can read who is currently connected from where. – Daniel B – 2016-01-25T21:53:37.167
