Change sleep settings

original title: change

Where can I go to change the period of time before my computer 'asleep'?  I'm doing a backup and the computer shuts down until the backup is complete.  I had to start again -veryannoying.  Or do you have another solution?

Click Start and type "power options" and press ENTER. Click on the course with a dot in front of it (plan) 'Change plan settings' on the next screen select sleep to "never". If you use a laptop, you will see the plan sets out the two "on battery" and "Plugged" change for both. then click on 'save changes' and its done. If after clicking and typing power options do not lead you to power options, then you can goto Control Panel > system and security > Power Options. It will be useful.

Good luck!

    I run Windows XP Pro and am fed up with my PC, switch to 'sleep' mode when I told him to stop.  How can I change the settings so it stops completely instead of sleep mode? Please do not assume that I know computers - a complete manual would be better. Thank you very much.

    Hello Cosmicbbb,

    Thank you for your message.  If you want to withdraw your option set to the option "Turn off computer", you can make the following registry edit.
    Click Start > click Run > type regedit and press "Enter."
    Navigate to:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ACPI\Parameters.
    Right-click in the empty space in the right pane and select new | DWORD value.
    Attribute value name
    Then, double-click attributes
    Make sure hexadecimal is selected by breaking 70
    Click OK, close the registry editor and restart.
    Now when you choose to stop the computer in the start menu in XP, you will not be able to choose the day before by accident.

  • Windows 8 crash, lost store and change pc settings does not open.

    I have an ASUS S400CA, bit Win8 64 runnings. I bought this laptop in February 3013, and have had significant problems since the first day.

    There have been regular broadcasts with the mode 'sleep', as when I put the laptop to sleep he would constantly show the error 'driver not less or equal to athw8x.sys' wake him up. The computer would also regularly hang and then crash without reason apparent under different levels of load on different surfaces. The temperature was not always high.
    An update of the system early in the piece alleviated problems, there were more accidents hang and error athw8x.sys became much less common, happening now at most once a day.
    Earlier, tonight when I woke up the laptop, it has frozen on a black screen. I was then forced to close (holding power button, because it should not take two minutes with something that is called "moment we ' installed by default) and restarted, it. Here, my trouble started; my lock screen had changed the picture. Don't think anything of him and got to the screen of the tile. I tried to open Chrome. I went to the office and realized that Chrome, apparently, no longer existed. I thought that was weird and then realized my office had no top file. I then worried and restarted, which caused the system analyze and correct readers. The returned files. However, Miss me now most of my windows, including Windows Store. I wanted to update the system, but the "change pc settings" button in my toolbar does not open. This composition, various applications such as my protection against the virus and Microsoft Office uninstalled themselves.
    Please, I need help. I can post any documentation that someone wants if they can tell me where to find, or more precisely what they want.

    Hi Mitchell,

    This problem may occur because of file system corrupted or because of the conflict between certain third-party applications.

    You did any hardware or software changes on the computer before this problem?

    Method 1:
    I suggest you run the SFC (System File Checker) and check if it helps.

    a. open Windows Explorer.
    b. press Windows + X key , and then click command prompt (Admin).
    c. type the command: sfc/scannow , and then press enter.
    d. restart the computer and check.


    Method 2:

    If the problem persists, I suggest you to check whether or not you are facing the same problem in Mode without failure. If the problem does not occur in Mode without failure, you can configure the computer to boot and check if it helps.

    Step 1:
    I suggest to return the item and start the computer in Mode safe. Check if it helps.

    Start settings for Windows (including safe mode)
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows-8/Windows-startup-settings-including-safe-mode

    Step 2:
    If the problem does not occur in Mode safe run clean boot and check.

    By setting your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.

  • I changed the settings of Java and now Firefox plant she opens up, even in safe mode; How can I fix?

    I tried to change the settings to access the comments section of Slate.com. Good or bad, I changed a setting Java-1 to 2. The setting spoke in: config and I think it was some sort of max. As I can't open anything, I'm not sure.

    When I made the change, firefox crashed immediately, whenever I tried to reopen, even in safe mode, it hangs again immediately and will not reopen.

    Hi pternagy,
    Sorry, you have problems.

    For any future reference. Those of us who mess directly with: config soon find out how to get errors and it is wise to backup. Occasionally backup of your entire profile for example can be useful and would probably give you a quick solution of the copy on the file from the backup.

    OK on the topic to try to get Firefox back as it was:
    Find your profile and the prefs.js file and rename that. (The renamed file is a potentially useful backup.) Firefox is then forced to regenerate the file and will reset your default preferences. You can then re open and use Firefox. Then, try to return to normal.

    Try to manually change the file prefs.js is normally a bad idea. However, if this is a one-time change prefs it would be possible to directly edit the prefs.js file (while Firefox is closed) to get everything back to how it was before. You have the file renamed to work with. Probably best to test this in a new additional profile so only break you test additional essential Firefox profiles profiles works do not.

    These articles should help you:

    Please post back with how you go and if you need additional assistance.
    Good luck.

    How you stay connected on my accounts on sites like reddit and gmail? I changed my settings to allow cookies, but I still need to login each time.

    Websites to remember you and automatically log you in are stored in a cookie.

    • Create a cookie exception permit to keep such cookies, especially for sites Web secure and if the cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
    • Tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: Exceptions

    In case you use "clear history of Firefox closing:

  • When I download a file I can't find - ANYWHERE. I changed the settings, destinations, etc. that it disappears. How to fix?

    I had to uninstall my McAfee antivirus and when I went to download to reinstall the backup file / download disappears. I changed the settings by some previous posts, I tried the new destinations on my computer, I restarted, I disabled all add-ons, nothing seems to work. I tried to install a new browser (Google Chrome) just to see if that works but I can not install either from the download file disappears and I can't install anything! I ran again a search of my C: drive looking for all the files that I downloaded in the last 2 days and he doesn't find anything. Backups are just going into the abyss! What can I do? How can I fix it?

    You mention some settings. What were they?

    You can try to disable antivirus integrated. This assumes you have real-time antivirus of files added to the filesystem via McAfee or another product.

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the filter box, type or paste the scan and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone to change its value.

    Also obvious - this parameter points your AV file software - it also marks the file as from the web, which causes Windows to apply some security restrictions for the file. If you find that this change solves the problem, the disappearance of the file could be due to your security settings for IE for the Internet zone.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "basic troubleshooting: a new profile:

    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.

    If this new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.
