Windows 10 1809 screen turns off after 5 minutes regardless of power settings












0
















  • Windows 10 1809

  • Desktop computer


Settings > Power & sleep > Screen > When plugged in, turn off after > 15 minutes
enter image description here



Control Panel > Power options > Edit Plan Settings > Turn off the display > 15 minutes
enter image description here



Control Panel > Power options > Edit Plan Settings > Change advanced power setting > Display > Turn off display after > 15 minutes



enter image description here



Despite all these settings set to turn off the screen after 15 minutes my screen turns off after 5 minutes.



Where else is there to change screen time out settings to have the screen turn off after user desired interval?

  • I don't think there is a setting in BIOS to turn off the screen but I'll check next time I reboot and report back...

  • My screen saver was set to none and Wait was set to 5 minutes so it was actually screen saver that was kicking in. The same effect would be if the screen saver was set to "Blank".
