Monitor goes into standby after computer wakes from sleep (Windows 7) #24

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. While logged on to a user, press the sleep button on your computer. The 
computer will enter sleep mode (S3/S5).
2. Wake the computer from sleep. The "locked user" screen appears and 
prompts you for the password to unlock the user. 
3. After two seconds, the monitor goes into standby mode, as if you've 
just lock the workstation (which you didn't - the lock was automatic when 
waking from sleep).

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The computer should wake from sleep without having the monitor go into 
standby after a few seconds.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Monitor Energy Saver 0.5 on Windows 7 x64

Please provide any additional information below.

Obviously MonitorES catches the lock workstation event that is fired 
automatically right after waking from sleep (if the "Require password on 
wakeup" option is enabled in the advanced Power Options dialog box. A 
reasonable solution would be to catch the wake from sleep/hibernate event 
and disable the lock workstation event detection for 5 seconds or so. Or, 
it could check if the "Require password on wakeup" option (probably via 
the registry), and if it is enabled, ignore the next lock event.

Could you check the same with latest MonitorES 1.0b ?

Seems to be fixed in 1.0b.

Thanks @allon.guralnek for your detailed report and suggestions. I've added 
extra protection in the latest branch. It will available in the final version.
