Keep Awake Chrome Extension

Keep Awake (Display | System) is a useful addon designed to prevent your computer’s display or system from going to sleep without altering your power settings. Featuring a simple ON|OFF switch, this extension operates in two distinct modes: Display Mode keeps your screen active, while System Mode prevents your machine from entering sleep mode.

To use it, simply click the toolbar button to activate it (indicated by a yellow icon), ensuring your display remains on or your system stays awake as per your selected mode. You can switch modes easily by right-clicking the toolbar button and selecting your preference. Perfect for presentations or extended tasks, this addon allows you to maintain full control over your screen activity. Bug reports can be submitted through the addon's homepage.

Keeps my monitor on all the time, while enabled. Windows 10 / Chrome.

Lesley Waddell, 2025-02-21

I have two external monitors connected to my acer 516 GE Chromebook Pro and using this extension I can't get any of my monitors to stay awake. This extension simply does not work (for me). I was really hopeful it would as it came with very high reviews.
