Sleep mode issue

[kennethk]

I installed a live background for my pc and set it to sleep every 1 minute just to see what it's like. Now that it's uninstalled my pc still sleeps every 1 minutes even though I have it set to 20 minutes. Any idea how to fix this?

make sure the app folder is deleted and you might google to see if there is a registry key that needs to be reset/deleted

What would I search for? sleep mode reg key?

Reset your power mode settings to default. Then see if the behaviour changes. Also check if the screen saver left any cfg file of some sort.

I've already done the first part but not too sure how to do the other.

Anyone might know?

What version of windows do you run? And the name of the screen saver if possible, I will see if I can figure out something for you

Windows 8  I think this was it

Should of avoided Softonic

 

I might of found the issue, I was suppose to be in screen saver settings not sleep mode settings.

Try 'Msconfig' command and see if the app is still on the startup options.

 

Hope this helps.
