  1. Screensaver not starting since update to Windows 2004


    After updating Windows to 2004, the screensaver no longer comes on after the time I've set.


    Have tried both changing the number of minutes that should pass before it starts as well as tried different screensavers but to no avail.


    This is in fact a very old and common issue reported in the past. Both by me and others. Sorry to see how this very annoying issue has resurfaced again in the latest version of Windows.

  3. No sleep OR screensaver since update to 2004

    I updated my PC to Version 2004 and since then, even though I have a screensaver set to come on after 10 minutes,

    nothing happens. I tried sleep yesterday as an option. It worked once, but never again. I looked at the update and

    can see no uninstall of it. Is there a work-around to get a screensaver or sleep to work again? I don't want my screen

    to burn-in.

    Thank you for any ideas.
