Perfect, good to know. Hibernating is fine for me now anyway and this works like a charm. Thanks again.

. . . when I choose option [9] User defined and enter 1 (meaning 1 minute) it doesn't work, should I use a different notation?

This is what I get:
>Enter an Option number: 9

>Enter the Time in Minutes and press <Enter>: 1

C:\Windows\System32>
..then it does nothing after 1 minute...

Very strange, I have just tested it on mine and it works fine.
Did you press <Enter>?
Do OTHER Minutes work, like TWO for example?
I will try and have a look at it over the next couple of days.
I have Hibernate turned off, but that should NOT make a difference.

This is one I found and I have been using it for quite some time. If I'm up late and am using the computer it won't go into "sleep mode" until I stop using the computer for 10 minutes or so.

Colin,

I don't understand why you don't simply set that up in Power options.
Settings, System, Power & sleep

Apparently, I misunderstood ...

Colin,

I've done the same more times than I care to remember.

All the best,
