  1. How to make my mouse move while I’m Idle?


    I’m trying to find a way to make my laptops cursor move in windows 10 while I’m away and to prevent a screen saver lockout.

    It’s currently locked by IT at 15 minutes and is greyed out but I would like to set it for longer.

    I’m trying to think of a hot key or code to run, I don’t think I’m allowed to download any programs to the laptop so anything that’s available in vanilla windows 10 is ideal.

    Thank you in advance for the help!

    Bluetooth still on while idle

    Thanks for following the steps. Now, the settings won't take effect if you are only using normal PC idle mode. Normal functionality of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi settings are to stay connected even if PC is idle. With the settings that you have created, we would
    suggest that you set your PC to automatically go to Sleep or
    Hibernate
    once idle. In this way, the settings "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" should take effect.

    To set your PC to automatically go to Sleep or Hibernate when idle, please follow these steps:

    • Open Control Panel, set view by: Small
      icons.
    • Look for Power Options.
    • Click on Change when the computer sleeps on the left pane.
    • Set a timer.

    Please try it out. Hope it helps. If you have any other concerns, don't hesitate to come back to us.

    Mouse freeze after very short idle

    Hi,

    Outdated drivers is one of the possible reasons why you're experiencing this issue. We suggest running the hardware troubleshooter to isolate the root cause of the issue and provide the appropriate fix for it. Kindly follow the steps below:

    • Open Settings.
    • Choose Update & security, then click
      Troubleshoot
      .
    • Under Find and fix other problems, click
      Hardware and Devices
      .
    • Click Run the troubleshooter tab and follow the on-screen instructions.

    We also recommend updating the driver for your mouse using the steps on this article:Update drivers in Windows 10.

    We'll wait for your response about this matter.

    Thank you for the suggestions. I have already tried all of these steps.
