In the Windows environment, it is common for the screensaver to activate after a period of inactivity or for the computer to lock automatically. This can be inconvenient in certain situations, such as when running long processes or when monitoring a system remotely. In this article, we will explore different methods to prevent the screensaver from activating or the computer from locking using scripts in the Windows environment.

Examples:

1. CMD Script to Prevent Screensaver Activation:

@echo off

echo Disabling screensaver...

reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop" /v ScreenSaveActive /t REG_SZ /d 0 /f

echo Screensaver disabled.

2. PowerShell Script to Prevent Computer Locking:

Write-Output "Disabling computer lock..."

Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced" -Name "DisableLockWorkstation" -Value 1

Write-Output "Computer lock disabled."

These scripts can be saved with a ".bat" or ".ps1" extension, respectively, and executed whenever needed. They modify the corresponding registry values to disable the screensaver or computer lock.
