You can make your screen saver use activation/deactivation corners.
open regedit
open HKEY_CURRENT_USER
open software
open microsoft
open windows
open current version
click on Screen savers
add a new string value
name it Mouse Corners
edit value to equal "-Y-N" (no quotes)
Now when you position your mouse cursor in the upper right hand corner of
the screen, the screen saver will immediately activate, likewise, if you
position the mouse in the lower left hand corner of the screen, the
screen saver will not activate, even after it has been sitting for longer
than the time specified. This is very useful to keep your screen saver
from activating when doing disk utilities like defragment, and scan
disk. |
