Portable Screen Saver Control

Portable Screen Saver Control is a lightweight application built specifically for helping you activate or deactivate screensavers and power off the monitor in the easiest way possible.

Since this is the portable version of the program, it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry. You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you want to apply some small changes to the system.

This cross-platform utility sports a simple and clean interface that allows users to perform different operations with just a few clicks. It gives you the possibility of launching the current screensaver directly from the primary panel.

You can enable or disable the screensaver, restore the system to its default state at the start of the app, as well as assign hotkeys for launching the screensaver and powering off the monitor; this task can be scheduled by specifying the time interval (in seconds).

Additional settings allow users to make the program run at Windows startup, preserve the current configuration, as well as access the screensaver menu directly from the application’s window.

During our testing we have noticed that it carries out a task pretty quickly and without errors throughout the entire process. As it would be expected from such a small utility, it doesn’t slow down the system performance.

To sum things up, Portable Screen Saver Control is a simple software solution that packs only a few options for helping you activate the screensaver and power off the monitor. It cannot compete with other top products from its category, as it lacks many advanced features.
