So basically Even if I click it to bench or play a game and then reopen. It locks pc again.

Any ideas?
Are you closing down the BOINC manager or just the interface? WCG will still run when the manager closes. Options:
- suspend
- exit and stop doing science (or some message like that)
- right click the BOINC manager on the task bar and snooze it (not sure if that works or what it does?)
Any of these should return your system back to useable state for other things
