My computer goes into sleep mode by itself.

Hello,

For the past 2 days, whenever I use Open Office, after a certain amount of time my computer automatically goes to sleep, even if I was in the middle of typing.

On top of that, the more I turn it back on, the shorter the time between sleep cycles, making it unusable.

The only way I've found to prevent this is to constantly move my mouse at the same time, but it becomes difficult to type that way.

Thank you in advance if you find a solution to my problem :)

I had the same problem. I went to "settings" > "power & sleep" and set everything to never. But the problem persisted, my computer would go to sleep after two minutes.
I solved my issue by right-clicking on the desktop > "personalize". This opens a "settings" window. Go to "lock screen" > then look for "screen saver settings" (which is in blue. Be careful not to click on "screen timeout settings.") > this opens a small "screen saver settings" window.
Finally, make your choice. For me, it's good. Hoping it works for you too. I'm on Windows 10.
