Ok.
So there is no built-in option or DropDown like for initial ScreenResolution?

For disabling ScreenSaver I MUST use a 3rd party program/utility?

As far as I know,
Initial screen resolution also made by 3rd party.

Maybe you are referring to something else or maybe I get it wrong.

NO you do not have to.

You can figure out to disable Screensaver internally and contribute with your findings.

And we can add your findings to projects properly so everyone benefits from your discovery.

Reminding, these are all Contribution Hobby Projects.

Ok, here it is according to webpage:

https://www.windows-commandline.com/disable-screensaver-registry-settings/

Disabling ScreenSaver in Registry:

Reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop" /v ScreenSaveActive /t REG_SZ /d 0 /f

Enabling ScreenSaver in Registry:

Reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop" /v ScreenSaveActive /t REG_SZ /d 1 /f


Unfortunately I dunno how to create checkbox on WinBuilder GUI and how to change registry during startup/boot process.

Maybe someone could add this option to WinBuilder GUI.

Thank you
Peter

Sorry, since Winbuilder closed source software,
 We can not add or remove something WinBuilder GUI .
