How does Keep Computer Awake Extension Work?

If you are like us, you get up in the morning and you need to get things done. However, even on a good day, it is quite difficult to stay focused. All you need to do is to keep the computer on all day long, and this is what we provide with the Keep Computer Awake. When you use the extension, your computer will be kept in the normal state, but you can turn it back to default state by a timer. You can select the time to return to the default state, and you can change the screen-saver option to let your computer run all day long. This is especially useful if you are playing a game that consumes a lot of power, or if you want to watch a movie with full-screen mode.

You can switch between three states with this extension:

 Off - Turn off the computer and switch to default state. You can also use keyboard shortcuts.  Off for a while - Keep the computer running for a while, and then switch to the default state.  Never - Turn off the computer completely and never switch to the default state.  If you use Never, this extension will not show up when you click the icon in the system tray.  You can keep your computer on for a set time, and then switch to default state.  You can also add the extension to your favorites list, and it will be automatically added to your menu, next time you open the browser.  When you go to bed, this extension will switch to default state and your computer will be off.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
