## About Anti PC Sleep

Some apps want a window. This one wants to stay out of your way.

Anti PC Sleep sits in the notification area. Right click the icon, choose how long you need the machine awake for, and that is the whole interaction. Five minutes while a file copies, or twelve hours overnight.

## It lets go by itself

When the stretch you picked runs out, the hold ends and your normal power plan comes back. Nothing is overridden and nothing is left changed behind you: it asks Windows to stay awake rather than rewriting your settings.

## The screen is separate

Keep the display on with it, or let the screen blank while the machine keeps working. Overnight, the second one is usually what you want.

## And now a window

This build adds one, for the settings the menu does not carry. It still starts in the notification area, as it always has. The window is there when you want it, and not in the way when you do not.

No account. No sign-in. Nothing leaves your PC unless you choose to send feedback. No ads, and nothing held back behind an unlock.

Built for Windows 11, and at home on Windows 10.
