The latest version of Don't Sleep, version 9.93, has been released. This free, portable application is designed to prevent a computer from shutting down, entering standby, hibernating, turning off, or restarting. It is particularly beneficial for users with older software that was compatible with Windows 7 or Windows Vista, as newer operating systems have implemented more aggressive power-saving features that may disrupt these older programs.
In addition to blocking shutdowns, Don't Sleep also prevents logging off, deactivating the monitor, and activating the screen saver, providing users with uninterrupted access to their systems. The app includes a timer function that allows users to specify a duration for which the computer should remain active, after which it can be programmed to shut down or unblock.
Being a portable application means that Don't Sleep does not require installation; it can be run directly from the desktop or carried on a small USB stick or other storage devices, making it highly convenient for on-the-go use.
For users looking to optimize their system's performance, similar resources include guides on enabling the Ultimate Performance Power Plan in Windows 10 and 11, as well as instructions on how to manage sleep, hibernate, and lock options in the Start Menu of these operating systems.
In summary, Don't Sleep 9.93 is a practical tool for anyone needing to maintain system uptime, especially when working with legacy software, and offers flexible features to manage power settings effectively
