Synergy preventing Windows 10 going idle


Recommended Posts

In my Windows 10 power plan, I have it configured for the display to turn off after 10 minutes and to sleep entirely after 1 hour. I noticed today that my monitor wasn't turning off and computer wasn't going to sleep after several hours of inactivity. I narrowed it down to Synergy - despite having every other Synergy device turned off. Disabled the Synergy service and everything works as expected.

Thanks for posting, and sorry for the inconvenience. Synergy does sometimes prevent computers from sleeping. This is a known bug, which we plan to fix.

Any idea when the fix will roll out?  I am using version 1.10.3 stable from Sept 2019.

Have you tried that? If you are using Synergy 1 then replace "synergy-core.exe" with "synergyc.exe".
