  1. Windows 10 disables my screensaver automatically


    I've set a screen saver a little time ago, but I had to set is every time when I restarted my laptop. I jumped into the settings and discovered that Windows automatically disables my screen saver. My power plan is on best performance.

    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.Windows 10 disables my screensaver automatically :)

    Also, no matter how long I leave my system untouched, the screensaver never starts. Here are those settings:

    Any suggestions? I am under the assumption that resolving one issue would resolve both.

    Here is the output of powercfg /lastwake, powercfg /requests, and powercfg /waketimers

    The listed waketimer presumably is required by Acronis backup as I have a backup scheduled at 4am daily.
