Recently upgraded my DELL desktop from Windows 7 to 10. Prior to the upgrade, it worked fine. Now, however, it goes to sleep

Since upgrade to 10 from Windows 7, monitor goes into power saving mode. To "wake up" monitor, I have to reboot the computer by turning power off to modum/monitor. WHY is it doing this? I'm ready to downgrade back to Windows 7 if that is possible.

Hi,

Does the monitor turn off when it's idle or does it turns off by itself even you're doing something with it?
- Start by changing some settings in Power Option.
- In Power Options click on Change plan settings on the select power plan.
- Set Turn off the Display to Never and do the same with Put the computer to sleep then click Save changes.
- Test weather if it will still go to sleep automatically or not.
- If it will still continue to sleep even if you're doing something with it you can still downgrade back to Windows 7.
- Click Start then go to Settings, click on Update & Security and on the left pane click Recovery then you'll see Go back to Windows 7.
