If needed, I could program a Screen-Off-Overrider.My problem is pretty painful.
In past I already successful did the counterpart for my own Movie-Player, Screen/Drives/Everything (3 different options from windows) stay endless On however energy is configured.
It would react on mouse/keyboard input and how long to wait after last mouse/key-event...
Problem would be, if another program do the same backwards....-KodeZwerg (October 20, 2020, 03:31 AM)
In safe mode in the configuration window appear the time of the display to be turn off : 1 minute.Note : the display don't go off in safe mode...In safe mode most applications aren't running.
Is normal this function don't go in safe mode ?-Contro (October 19, 2020, 03:49 PM)-Ath (October 20, 2020, 12:32 AM)
Close all active programs, also the ones in the system tray, one by one, and wait after you close one if the screen goes off. That should find you if one of your programs is causing this phenomenon.In safe mode or in normal mode ?-Ath (October 19, 2020, 01:15 PM)
Google is my friend:First attempt produce no interaction or results. I will try in different moments.
Open a CMD interface (as administrator), then type:
powercfg -energy -trace
After waiting a minute you should now see an overview of processes that make use of the Windows energy saving functionality. That should give you insight into the problematic software.
You can also open the Windows Event Viewer and filter out all logging except for 'Event Source: Kernel-Power' and 'event ID: 62'. Another way to find out what might cause your problem.
If you feel this type of Windows interface is not your thing, let someone who knows take a look at the events that took place on your laptop.-Shades (October 18, 2020, 12:25 AM)
Have a look at the whatsapp settings / storage usage:Applying everything
you can delete all messages from a particular user or group. This may be helpful. 4wd's recommendation is (as usual) very helpful-tomos (October 14, 2020, 05:27 PM)
Install Google Files from the Play Store:Okis. I will do this.

It'll tell you how much 'junk' can possibly be removed and/or what is using up space, (apps, documents, images, etc, etc).
Make sure you know exactly what is going to get removed before doing it if you do.-4wd (October 14, 2020, 03:24 AM)
Deleting the application-data is not very useful, you would have to log in to accounts anew, and set up configuration again, etc., and after doing that the (nearly) same amount of storage is used...
Best way to save storage space is to remove apps you don't need.-Ath (October 14, 2020, 12:35 AM)
I am investigating again and again. I usually uninstall apps .I don't understand.do they have different versions of android? That could explain the newer one having less space. What does it have, only 16GB?
I have less apps than in my other mobile Samsung J3 and less space.-Contro (October 13, 2020, 05:56 AM)-tomos (October 13, 2020, 04:28 PM)
