Windows 10 1809 screen turns off after 5 minutes regardless of power settings
- Windows 10 1809
- Desktop computer
Settings > Power & sleep > Screen > When plugged in, turn off after > 15 minutes
Control Panel > Power options > Edit Plan Settings > Turn off the display > 15 minutes
Control Panel > Power options > Edit Plan Settings > Change advanced power setting > Display > Turn off display after > 15 minutes
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?

Have you checked the BIOS power settings?

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".

The led on this Acer monitor is on the bottom for some reason, so I didn't notice the monitor is on... Have to wait another 11 hours to mark as answer.
