Stims is a compact application that can help you prevent your computer from shutting down or standing by. It runs subtly in the tray and can prevent the computer shutting down due to inactivity for a selectable period from 30 minutes to 2 days.
It can also be locked on. Stims can be set to simply prevent shutdowns, or it can make the computer think someone is active by simulating a button press every minute.
Stims can also be activated via the command line, and can be set to auto-start with Windows and/or automatically close when the Stims run out.
Stims can also use to prevent careless shutdowns by requiring an additional approval, or by automatically cancelling the shutdown.
Here are some key features of "Stims":
· 17 different preset times from 30 minutes up to 2 days can be selected to keep Windows awake. It can also be locked on.
· Any power event will be prevented, including suspend, hibernation, log-off, restart and shutdown.
· Stims can also keep the computer active by simulating a shift key press every minute.
· Stims can be set to auto start with windows, and auto exit when the stim runs out.
· The time and Auto Exit status can also be set via command line parameters.
· The Shutdown Stop and Shutdown Warn functions can protect against accidental shutdowns. With this feature shutdowns will either need extra approval or will be stopped before they start.
· Multi-user setups are supported and Stims will run without any problems on a low privilege system and Windows Vista.
· Stims is written in 100% Assembly Language and is very small and memory efficient. The program itself is around 50KB!
· Stims can be run from a USB key and does not even need to be installed.
