Power off Monitor on Logon Screen

Has anyone successfully enabled this tweak? I followed the instructions but my monitor won't turn off.

OK, I got it to work. I modified the default (system wide power shceme) at HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\PowerCfg\PowerPolicies\0
It was set to turn off monitor at 30 min. Now it turns off in 5min.

Hello vukodlak75,

Thank you for your posting. Yes, we have retested the tweak and have found it to be working properly.

We set the Monitor Off time to 1 min within the Control Panel/Power Options and then applied the tweak via Tweak Manager. After logging out and waiting 1 minute, the monitor went into stand by mode.

Try to further isolate the problem by not applying the tweak but set the monitor to 1 minute and do not logout. If the monitor goes into stand by then it should work with the tweak applied.

Regards,

Patrick O'Brien
