How to keep screen active while transparent screensaver is ON?

I'd like to protect my monitors/TVs.

Gus,

You don't need to.

You are thinking of protection which was relevant a couple of decades ago.

To add, that 'protection' back in the CRT/Cathode Ray Tube days with monitors was to prevent the coating on the inner side of the glass from getting "burn in" from data always displayed, the screen savers refreshed/wiped the coating to prevent that. As @Try3 said, it's not necessary for the newer monitors. TVs didn't need a screen saver as the display constantly changed. The Windows display of data is dynamic, not static like a picture on the wall, is always redrawing/refreshing.

Wallpaper Engine - you can use any preset or create your own, just rename .scr to .exe

Have a look into Transparent Screen Lock It works for Windows 7 and 10 but you will not be able to interact with the system while it is running.

I'm sorry but neither of these fulfil the OP's stated requirements,

... make a few clicks here and there ...

whereas doing nothing does fulfil them.

I like post #7 and the backup from #4.

There is nothing to "protect" in the old classical sense. Unless you've managed to connect a CRT to your laptop.

The above is an insecure site. Caution.
