Last message about a code rewrite was two years ago. New version ever coming? Or is this project deprecated?

Hi!

We published the rewritten version of Stand-Bye! (now named Econap) more than one year ago - you can download it here: https://www.econap.de

Best wishes Stephan

Thanks!!!

This is exactly the program I was looking for. But it took a few hours of research to find it. It was nestled on page 7 of 7 on a forum post. The specific functionality I am seeking is to automatically prevent Windows from sleeping when I have a specific Hyper-V Guest running. So it would be, the "process blocker".

The search terms I was using: "prevent sleep certain process" "prevent sleep specific process" "process exception prevent standby" "windows process active prevent sleep" "allow application to prevent automatic sleep"

I'm unaware if it's possible to include such nomenclature in the description. But those were the phrases I was searching for.

Google USA seems to direct people towards Insomnia, Caffeine, and Don't Sleep. These results occupy the first 2 or 3 pages. Bing is a similar situation.

I see you guys' are emphasizing auto-sleep around resource utilization, but I would argue that the other functionality is equally marketable and may help to increase your guys' search ranking. Perhaps a .com domain might also increase visibility. It might also be prudent to put on the header of this project, that it has since been renamed to Econap

Anyhow...

My sincere thanks once again :)
