Our computer is optimized to save power consumption to ensure long working hours. Therefore, system settings are also adjusted that way. However, this is just a default feature, and you can easily change your settings to optimize features per your specific needs and requirements.
Usually, our system goes on sleep when there is a set hour of inactivity. It saves all the data and shuts down the system. Hence, it goes through a minor reboot when we try to turn it on again. This entire process can waste your valuable time. So, here is an article for you with a step-by-step process to stop your computer from logging off due to inactivity.
Step 1:
Click on the windows icon on the bottom left corner of the screen. Once the menu pops up, look for the control panel icon. If you do not find the control panel, you can search it using the search bar present alongside the windows icon on the taskbar.
Step 2:
Once the control panel window opens, look for the “System and Security” option. Next, in the System and Security menu, click on “Power Options.”
Step 3:
In the Power Options tab, click on “Change Advanced Power Setting.” Next, find the “Advanced Setting” tab at the top of the dialog box and click on it.
Step 4:
Now, find the “Sleep” option and double-click on it. Next, you will find the “Sleep After” tab; double-click this tab.
Step 5:
In the subsequent dialog box, look for the “Settings” option and click on it. Here you will find a drop-down menu. From the menu, choose the “never” option.
However, if you are on a laptop, you will find the “Plugged In” or “Battery” option instead of “Settings.” Click on any of these options and select “never” from the drop-down menu.
Step 6:
Lastly, click on the “save changes” button at the bottom of the tab to prevent your PC from going into sleep mode again.
