Disable Auto-Sleep Windows

Description

One of the small issue that i or many of you may have been experiencing is windows puts itself to sleep when not used for some time, This is because of a default setting in windows which first turn off your display after a specified time & then hibernates your computer & put it to sleep. In case you’ve started downloading a big file & you’re away, pc will set itself to sleep & your download will be paused in between, that’s what was happening to me. So i’ve came up with a tutorial to fix this up. Follow guide given below to fix this up for you as well.
