Sometimes if the screen saver is set to Blank and the wait time is 15 minutes, it’ll look like your screen has turned off. Go to Control Panel, click on Personalization, and then click on Screen Saver at the bottom right. The second setting you want to check is the screen saver. Click OK and then click Save Changes on the Edit Plan Settings page. After this, click on the Change advanced power settings link.Įxpand Hard disk and then expand Turn off hard disk after. You don’t have to set it to Never if you don’t want to. Next, change the Turn off the display setting to whatever value you desire.
In my case, the High Performance plan is selected, so I’ll click on the link next to it.įirst, make sure that Put the computer to sleep is set to Never.
As far as I can see my only option is to delete the local profile.Click on the Change plan settings link that is next to the plan that is currently selected. I consider this a bug, since even if the settings were enforced by Exchange, the setting should be removed after removing from control panel. So basically it is ignoring any setting in personalization, and is fixed at 1 minute with screen lock. Locks the screen, even though this is not set either. But if I change the screensaver timeout value, as soon as I go back into the settings, it is back at 1 minute.Īctually I managed to get it to say 15 minutes in there by editing the local GPO (User Config\Admin Templates\Personalization\Screen saver timeout) but even when it says 15 minutes in there, it comes on after 1 minute. I got so fed up with it I removed the Exchange account from mail app and rebooted. I believe it was change by the mail app, enforcing Exchange ActiveSync policies to 1 minute (even though the server does not enforce 1 minute on a phone). I am unable to change the screensaver timeout in Windows 8 Pro RTM.
