Hi alarson-nwpump,
Please provide some more details:
- what version of Windows does it run
- what's the make and model
- what are power scheme settings
What happens if you set the screen to never turn off, just dim/user the screen saver?

Oh and when setting the screen to turn off as never does work, but that's not feasible to have it always dimmed.
I know that since the computer is still connected, you guys just need to programmatically turn the screen back on, and allow things to connect, rather than it assuming that the computer is offline because of the screen being turned off by power settings.

Thank you, this will help us with recreating the issue.

Windows 11 (version 10.0.22621.0)
Dell Latitude 5520
Power settings are set such that:
- "When plugged in, turn off my screen after" = "15 minutes"
- "When plugged in, put my device to sleep after" = "Never"
And those settings do work, because after the 15 minutes, I'm able to still ping the computer but it shows up as Offline in the console.
