Both Mac systems sleep as expected, but the Win 8.1 system does not.\r\n\r\nAs mentioned in [#4162][1], the Win 8.1 display will not automatically sleep unless the server is configured with \"screenSaverSync = false\". Once that feature is disabled, the display timeouts are controlled by the independent system settings. The Win 8.1 system itself will never automatically fall asleep.\r\n\r\n**Steps to reproduce:**\r\n\r\n1. Run **CMD** in Administrator Mode.\r\n2. Type \"powercfg -energy\" and wait for it to complete. A report will be created at: C:\\Windows\\system32\\energy-report.html\r\n3. Move/Copy that HTML file outside of C:\\Windows (i.e., your Documents folder) and then open it in your web browser.\r\n4. Under Analysis Results: Errors, the following is reported:\r\n\r\n\r\n----------\r\n\r\n\r\n**System Availability Requests:System Required Request**\r\n\r\nThe program has made a request to prevent the system from automatically entering sleep.\r\n\r\nRequesting Process: **\\Device\\HarddiskVolume4\\Program Files\\Synergy\\synergyc.exe**\r\n\r\n\r\n----------\r\n\r\nWhen the Synergy client is stopped, the system is able to automatically fall asleep.\r\n\r\nThe above behavior may be intended for normal Synergy usage, but after manually sleeping all my systems each night, the Win 8.1 client wakes up to perform Scheduled Tasks and Regular Maintenance. Even though the Synergy server remains asleep at this point, the Win 8.1 client will not automatically fall back asleep.\r\n\r\nSo every morning, I find my Win 8.1 system awake and idle. Prior to disabling \"screenSaverSync\", the display was also on, which was even worse.\r\n\r\n-\r\n\r\n### Expected ###\r\nThe client system should never automatically sleep while the server is awake, but when the server is sleeping, the client's system power settings should determine when the client automatically returns to sleep.\r\n\r\nWhen \"screenSaverSync\" is enabled (set to TRUE), the Win 8.1 client display should fall asleep when the server does.\r\n\r\n### Actual ###\r\nThe client system never automatically falls asleep, even when the server is sleeping. The client system power settings are ignored or prevented from sleeping the computer.\r\n\r\nThe Win 8.1 client display will never fall asleep while \"screenSaverSync\" is enabled (set to TRUE), even when the server display and/or system is sleeping.\r\n\r\n\r\n  [1]: http://synergy-project.org/spit/issues/details/4162/"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/synergy/synergy/issues/comments/137182082","html_url":"https://github.com/synergy/synergy/issues/4116#issuecomment-137182082","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/synergy/synergy/issues/4116","id":137182082,"user":{"login":"orditeck","id":2186535,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/2186535?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/orditeck","html_url":"https://github.com/orditeck","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/orditeck/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/orditeck/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/orditeck/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/orditeck/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/orditeck/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/orditeck/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/orditeck/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/orditeck/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/orditeck/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-09-02T17:36:24Z","updated_at":"2015-09-02T17:36:24Z","body":"Any update?...."}}
