You also have to have your power settings set to high performance instead of power saver

Yeah - me, too - I've set it up multiple times thinking Win10 was overriding me. But it's always set to never for both when plugged in. The only 'never' is that it never works.

hold shift while pressing shutdown in the menu, that makes a proper shutdown. There are ways to change it, cant remember how to do it but just google/youtube it and you should find it

Thanks, Dave, for the very useful information!

Thanks , life saver ,missing my calls form MS TEAMS. Thanks for easy tips Dave

Thanks Dave! couldn't manage to watch Alf without interruptions! Now I can. Cheers from Argentina.

What if I am using a laptop and a separate monitor the monitor keeps sleeping

Help lots! Thanks!

Great video! Thanks!

Thanks, that worked beautifully! Dino

Tysm for the information I was struggling to turn my PC on for ages

Hi, this has no effect. My computer monitors go to sleep while I'm watching youtube videos or playing casino games and I can't wake them up. No matter if the computer eventually follows suit, I can't wake it up. I have to press the power button to power off and reboot. Please help. I have an HP Pavillion Desktop and I use Windows 10 for my operating system. This is a real pain in the you know what. Thank you.

thanks , i needed it

thanks, this wqas clear and quick!

It worked for me, thanks very much!

this was soo helpful

My Man!! Thank you!

Thanks you solve my problem.

Thanks mate all fixed.

Very good video and good information thank you 👍

Hey Dave, Thanks for your expertise in solving Computer challenges. Unfortunately, I don't know computer language very well, so I might not be asking the right question to solve the challenge I have. No matter what I have tried I can not get my computer out of sleep mode to try anything. Its a desk top. I have so many documents stored that that's the main usage for me. Were documents are a big one and to be able to access and print. Alot of other tasks I simply do straight from my phone. I don't know how to access these documents when my computer is in constant sleep mode. Are my files stored on the actual moniter.? Or in the tower that runs it ? I have no idea

My other keyboard randomly triggers sleep mode, but when I use my other one, it functions normal. P.S the RGB keyboard causes random actions like sleep mode, and brightness. is it because of the faulty keyboard or the PSU nor a software issue?

Thank you!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

thank you Dave's,I did what said help me.☺️♥️

Thank you!

Thanks Dave i have tried all that but my Asus vivobook 17 really tries my patience, the screen switches off after 5 minutes no matter how I change it in the settings. I have tried just about everything including mouse jiggler and Coffee apps but all to no avail. My son in law even tried changing it in the registered but nothing will change it. After 5 minutes the screen goes off and I have to retype my passcode to get back in. This is extremely annoying as I may be working on my laptop and iPad at the same time and when I look at the laptop it has gone to sleep again, again. It doesn't;t switch off if videos are playing and if I am listening to music on iTunes it still plays but the screen does go off. Any help will probably keep me outta the nuthouse or stop me from throwing my laptop outta the window please, please, please

My specs: Windows 10 Home, Microsoft Edge Browser. My question: In the power and sleep setting, when you set the screen sleep ( on battery or while plugged in ) to lets say 2 minutes ,can the setting you put take effect while watching a KZread video? I want to listen to songs on KZread while doing something else; therefore, I won't need the screen. Is this possible?

Thanks for the help, this also works on Windows 11

Thank you.

thank you so much

this did not help at all, it keeps going to sleep almost instantly like for real!

thank you dave

I have a question that I hope you can answer. I am using a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon (9th Gen) Windows 10. There appears to be a feature that, every time I look away from the device, the screen times out and returns me to the lock screen. Its kind of akin to the haptic feedback on my phone were if I look away the screen dims. I need to turn this off. it is terrible. Can you provide some advice?

thank you

Thank you very much sir

Hey Dave, what about Windows 11, when I change setting "When plugged in, turn of my screen after" and 15 min by default. When I change it to "Never" it saves but after PC restart it goes back to default (15 min).

New friend here. Thanks for sharing.

If I click on (advance startup > Troubleshoot> Reset this pc> keep my files),,, will c drive completely clean as new?

Hi, the hdmi cable puts the computer display onto any screen. So plug an hdmi cable into your monitor or into your TV and you'll be able to use that screen.

Basically I wanted to turn off my pc, but instead of pressing shut down I pressed sleep. Now the monitor it self won’t turn on, but the cpu is fine but what do I do? I need it for school

Hi Dave, I have two questions. How can you remove a (possible) virus from your laptop? Also, can I use Express VPN to watch American TV? I live in the UK and want to watch a particular TV series I am fond of but want to watch live. I am prepared to subscribe to a VPN if necessary. I have Norton Utilities on my computer and can change VPN settings to any region I want but not to any city. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

what if you have it hooked to a monitor - monitor keeps going to sleep

So this doesn't work for me. I did this a few weeks ago, and still I return to a black screen every now and then... I have two monitors of different resolutions and everything on my desktop is moved around weirdly after...

My desktop PC goes to sleep repeatedly that I cant even get to use any suggestions to fix it. 😖

anyone ever had the same problem as mine? i already set all those "never" sleep, but then as i watch video the monitor suddenly turns off like went to sleep it turn back on as soon as i move my mouse (just like sleeping moitor) cant find any solution online as all solution is exactly like this video any help is appreciated

when clicked on power and sleep, just the screen option shows, no sleep option

did not work. still goes to sleep the minute I turn my back to the screen.

I always dislike people’s videos even if I like it, you still get the interaction

I found this GREAT link re. solutions but why is Windows 11 (and previous versions!) SO 'baddly trained' that it does not understand CPU activity to = BUSY = STAY AWAKE?

The problem is I can't get the monitor out of sleep to get the screen menu to change it

Hi, I’m trying to figure out why my HP monitor flickers “monitor going to sleep“ box even after I have turned off the computer. Is there an easy fix to this?

Same happened to me with hp computer

I have tried those settings over and over again, no luck. My computer, Asus laptop, just goes to sleep after 5 min no mater what settings as soon as I stop typing.

I have a DIFFERENT problem! Perhaps it is definitions: I have been aware of screen savers and shutting down disks/ssd since these functions appeared! I am an Engineer and I also download large files as many do (especially as the net is congested with multimedia files these days!) In my opinion, 'sleep' (display!) can be any time you leave/stop looking at your display/machine especially with the present speed for a display to wake!! (Am I wrong?) For ALL users that have/need activities to run (from time to time!) when the PC is unatended (downloading, calcs, CCTV etc.) 'sleep' (drives!) should NEVER occur when the CPU is 'busy'! (Right? Simple?) Or is this only my 'Pommie' Engineering logic? (I have a recollection that it was possible to delay 'sleep' or 'wake' during LPT activity, in the past!) PLEASE HELP! ; )

I did these changes, but when i click CTRL L to log out of windows ( so the kids don't play around on the desktop ) over time the laptop still goes to sleep. Any ideas? Keep up the great content.

I doesn't work.... I was looking for a solution to my problem... This is just explaining where the Windows settings are. What if the settings do not work?

I cant possibly do this if the monitor want come on at all

I agree with some of the other comments. I have adjusted the screen and sleep settings to never on all 4 but it still goes to sleep after around a minute of inactivity. This is super frustrating. So what if the settings dont work? Also, it hasnt always done this. It would go at least 5-10min before the screen locked and went dark. All of a sudden today it goes so fast to that now. Can anyone help?

My computer says preparing automatic repair and it won’t do anything else

I've got them all set to never but it still goes to sleep after about 3 minutes

I set my screen to go off after 15 min, but it never goes off? any ideas...

Just found you and thanks for the information 🐱

Didn't work for me. I've set it to never several times and after a few minutes it goes to sleep. Really a pain, especially when releasing music that I need to follow charts for. I can't even finish a song before it goes to sleep! 😡

I have set it as never but still it's turn off after 10min..

My computer refuses to sleep, even though the timers are set to make it sleep.

My screen sleep timer resets to 15mins randomly, no idea why. Drives me insane.

I set all settings to never still it goes to sleep.. after some time..
