Check in your Advanced Power Options that Power saver Require a password on wakeup Setting is No.
Under Sleep, Sleep after is Never along with Hibernation
A software can also be responsible that means modified the registry, follow the below article,
When you try to log on to a Windows Vista-based computer, you briefly receive a “Welcome” message, and then you are logged off

You need to restore the file userinit.exe to C:WINDOWSsystem32 and restore the Registry data:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWinlogon]
“Userinit”=”C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\userinit.exe,”
