Hi, If you lock the keyboard and mouse, you have to press CTRL + ALT + DEL to open the screen.
We have noted this problem and will investigate it.
First of all, I would like to congratulate the entire team for providing so many wonderful tools. I tested it on my Windows 10 Home 22H2, i7-6700K, 16 RAM, and I have noticed a certain delay in unlocking. At first, I even thought it wouldn’t come back. Because of that, I was hesitant to use it. I feel sad because it was the only one of its kind that turns off the screen and locks the keyboard and mouse. I am anxious for an update. I wish the entire team good work.
The Hide from Uninstall tool cannot hide Microsoft Store apps.
Therefore, the Minecraft Store app will not be listed. You can hide the list of programs completely using the option in the top right corner of the program interface.
I love this software! Thanks for your work.
I have one question. Monitors sometimes don’t back from off state and I’m forced to hard reset my PC. Do you know any solution for this issue? OS is Windows 11 Home.
Hi, We have noted down your requests, thank you.
Hi Dev. I am waiting for updates on this project. Hoping you will add a shortcut hot key to turn off the screen and a countdown timer before it off really need this app to prolong the monitor of my laptop.
