    Is the screensavers a friend or an enemy?


    Hello friends, I have two questions One:In Windows 10, is the settings/system/power & sleep address the same as the screen saver settings window? Are both of these screensavers? https://i.postimg.cc/rpx9Nnhd/screenshot-29.pnghttps://i.postimg.cc/x8TyY09H/screenshot-29.png two :Some sites say that we should turn on the screensaver to increase the lifespan of the monitorAnd some other sites say that it should be turned off because it consumes a lot of hardwarequote:Not an answer to your question, but I prefer the screensavers to be activated manually only.The so-called "modern

    I would suggest you to try the following steps and check if that helps.

    • Go to the folder C:\Windows\System32 and sort by file type.
    • Look for the screensaver file type (.scr).
    • Find the file scrnsave.scr(you can choose any of the screensavers).
    • Right click and select send to>desktop (create shortcut). The shortcut on my attachment, but when i click on it my screen goes off and on and nothing else.Is the screensavers a friend or an enemy? :)

  3. Can't Remove Screensavers

    Well since there is no way to uninstall the two screensavers I made it was suggested I uninstall the program. Unfortunately, even after uninstalling Axialis Screensaver, the screensavers I made are still listed. Not a big deal just wonder where the data is hiding? Normally they should of been created in the system32 folder but in searching none where found. *Mad

    Windows 11 upgrade screensaver problem

    Where are the results for the dozen-plus steps I gave you to try, and was waiting for results to be posted back so I know what else to suggest?

    This is an interactive process. I give steps to perform, you do each one and then report back results until something works, so I know what to suggest next. If you need help performing any step, just ask back. But please do not skip any steps. We often find out the skipped step is the fix.

    Screensaver is so dated I had to really dig to find those fixes, so to have them completely ignored is very discouraging. Can you go back to the top of the list and work through them now?

    No Screensaver: Hi folks, despite setting up my screensaver to show a slideshow of my pictures like I did in Windows 7 it will not start. Also the computer does not shut down even though I've set it to turn off after an hour. Not life or death but irritating. 15116
