Turn Off Standby, Hibernation, Screensaver In Windows Temporarily Using Don’t Sleep

Advertisement

Sometimes you feel irritated when your Computer suddenly goes off into sleep, or your screen saver shows up, or your monitor gets turned off in the mid of watching a video. It is not convenient to every time change the Windows Power Management settings. Don’t Sleep is a small portable utility that lets you suspend some Windows Power Options temporarily.

You can turn off standby, hybrid-standby, hibernation, block shutdown, logoff, disable the screensaver, and even stop your monitor from getting turned off. The tool runs from the system tray, and gives you single click access to all the options.

There is a timer option to set a date and time for reverting to the original Windows Power settings. To get back to the old Windows Power Management settings, select ‘Exit and stop blocking’ from the drop down menu, and select the ‘Use Timer’ check box.

In a similar way, you can use Don’t Sleep to schedule standby, hibernation, or shutdown of your computer. For  configuring automatic shutdown, set the timer, and select the ‘User Timer’ check box, and choose the option ‘Exit and Shutdown’ from the drop down menu. Alternatively, you can also schedule automatic standby or hibernation, or a forced shutdown.
