Hi everybody. I have a desktop PC.
Here are my current power and screen saver settings (in french, but I'm sure you can understand ):
As you can see, after 6 minutes idling, the screen saver kicks in, without ever leaving the session.
After 15 minutes the screen turns off. But the computer supposedly never goes to sleep.
At least that's what I thought. Yesterday I left it on for the night, and today I was surprised to see that my whole session had been closed! I was directly at the logon screen. after entering my password, my session opened again: all my startup apps had to load again, and Win 11 opened again both my browsers, which I had left open on purpose. But Win 11 didn't even open them well: when I left for the night they both were fullscreen (but minimized in the taskbar) and Win 11 opened them in windowed mode (so I had to click on the enlarge window button for each of them).
It all was quite annoying, and I'd like to prevent this from happening again if possible.
So how can I make sure that Win 11 never leaves the current session without me explicitly telling it to do so?
Thanks in advance!
