Disable Power Save Mode

How Do I Disable Power Save Mode?


The power saving mode in Windows, commonly referred to as "sleep mode," can often become a nuisance when streaming files that do not require you to control the computer. Although disabling this feature is very easy, most Windows manuals and help tips do not guide users through the process. While Windows isn't to blame for this as the feature can often be helpful, it would be beneficial to know perform the change and luckily this is where it can be provided to the novice computer users.


Turn off Sleep Mode


Sleep Mode is essentially a display feature which will turn off the computer after a number of minutes. Modifying this feature can naturally be found in the display features, which can be obtained through right-clicking the desktop and going to Properties. The Properties on the desktop contains everything about the visual look of the computer from screen savers and background images to desktop themes and power options. It is inside the power options feature that the sleep mode options will appear.


Inside the option for the screen saver, there will be a Power button which will let you adjust all of the power settings such as when to turn off the monitor, the hard disks and when to put the computer into sleep mode. To turn off the sleep mode completely, there is a sliding bar telling the computer how many minutes to leave the computer on before entering into sleep mode. Sliding this bar all the way to the right will put the Sleep Mode option to "never" which will tell the computer to completely disable sleep mode.
