Overview
A tiny Windows tray app that stops your PC from going to sleep while you download, present, render or build, then lets it sleep normally again.
Keep Awake uses the standard Windows power request, the same one video players use, so there are no fake mouse moves or key presses. When you switch it off or quit, your normal sleep settings apply again immediately.
Try it free for 7 days, then unlock it with a one-time purchase in the Microsoft Store. No account, no ads, no data collection.
