@EliasG What version of macOS is this M1 Mac running? There was a change in how the Lock command works with M-series Macs in macOS 11.5.

11.2.3 and 11.2.2


@EliasG You really want to upgrade those to at least 11.5. Prior to 11.5 when the Lock command did run it simply restarted the Mac and asked the user to enter their admin password to unlock. Not exactly what one would find useful for an organizational owned/managed Mac.
