Windows 10: 3rd party screen saver won't turn off when multiple displays connected

HelloI am facing a problem with Windows 10 Enterprise. I downloaded multiple 3rd party screen savers one at a time. When the screen saver starts while I have 3 monitors connected to the computer, I notice that 3 copies of the screen saver starts, one for every screen. But when I move the mouse or click a button, 2 screen turns blank and the primary one still shows the screen saver. Going to task manager does not help as it opens behind the screen saver.What I had to do is to click alt - tab and move screen saver to a new desktop there I see there are 3 copies of it active, one on every scre

Monitors will not turn off/Screen saver won;t activate


Hi guys. I have been trying to get my monitors to shut off so I don't get a burn in on my screens. I can't seem to figure out what is causing them to stay on. I tried enabling a screen saver which won't turn on and I also tried making a keyboard shortcut to turn off the monitor with a cmd command. Whenever I use the shortcut the monitors go down for a second and then pop right back on. I read somewhere it could be my mouse or keyboard causing it to stay awake, but I don;t think this is the problem seeing as it was fine on windows 7. Can anybody help me out?


Thanks!

I would like to note that step 20 comes up with no files. Perhaps this could be the source of the issues?

 

Screen Saver won't turn off

Hi Bodine,

There may be an issue with the screen saver settings that is why you cannot turn off your screen saver using your mouse or keyboard. To resolve this issue, kindly disable the screen saver, and then re-enable it. To do this, follow these steps:

• Click the Windows logo (Start button).
• Click the gear icon (Settings).
• Choose Personalization.
• On the left pane, select Lock screen.
• On the right pane, click Screen saver settings.
• On the Screen Saver Settings window, click the drop-down menu under
  Screen saver and choose None.
• Click Apply, and then click OK.
• Access the Screen Saver Settings window again.
• On the Screen Saver Settings window, click the drop-down menu under
  Screen saver and choose the screen saver that you want.
• Click Apply, and then click OK.
• Check if you'll be able to turn off the screen saver using your mouse or keyboard.

After performing the steps above, kindly share with us the result.
