I'm not sure if it's allowed or not to JUST MENTION THEM : so this issue is happening on one of these LITE custom builds. I don't think it's an issue to mention it? If it is i'm sorry. Issue: I use a screensaver called "Album Art Screensaver" very old and very famous, luckily working fine on recent windows such as 11.

However when using it on one of these "Lite" build, right when screensaver is about to start (screen turns black) it immediately goes back to login screen.. What's strange is that in the screensaver options, i can use the preview button and the screensaver just works fine!

So there's probably something disabled somewhere but what is it? Thats the question and that's what i'd like to learn :)

Does the LITE version you're using have a forum? If it does you may have a better chance to find what was disabled that is causing your problem.

Actually it's most of the lite version (ghost, xlite..) that have this issue. They don't have a forum.

Try:

Device Manager > Human Interface Device > uncheck "allow computer to turn off this device to save power" for every HID device (right click each > properties)
