Craig Snyder 0 Posted August 31, 2016 Author Share Posted August 31, 2016 My server will sleep and turn the display off after inactivity, but my client machine won't. I have screen saver synchronization on. Both are Windows 10 machines. Link to post Share on other sites

Joshua Post 0 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Same here. Is there a setting that can be changed to allow a client to still go to sleep if desired? Link to post Share on other sites

James Beuzeval 0 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 I have this same problem on Windows 10 client, I'm running 1.8.5. In fact I've had it for a while but only just identified Synergy as the culprit having run "powercfg /requests" from the command line. Â I' identified and also fixed the issue by following this guide http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/32 ... ndows.html. Â I had to make a few goes to get the override working. Just make sure "synergyc.exe SYSTEM" appears under [PROCESS] when you run powercfg -requestsoverride to be sure you're good to go. Link to post Share on other sites
Joshua Post 0 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 The requestsoverride worked for me with a little more tweaking. It was showing up as Display and System for me.  Click on Start and type in Command and right click on the entry and select "Run as Administrator" Type in the following command to allow the system to sleep, even if Synergy is running  powercfg -requestsoverride PROCESS synergyc.exe DISPLAY SYSTEM  You can verify it appears in the list of overrides with this command  powercfg /requestsoverride  [sERVICE]  [PROCESS] synergyc.exe DISPLAY SYSTEM  [DRIVER] Link to post Share on other sites
