How to prevent game from freezing at lock screen.

[Matthalas Winterheart]

Good Morning All,

As the title implies, Im looking to see if there is a way to prevent the game from locking up when I lock my screen. I'll do this whenever I go afk so that my daughter doesnt mess with things while Im away.

I am currently running the game in windowed mode, not sure how if at all I can prevent this from happening.

Thanks!

What OS? Do you have any power options to turn monitor off, or screen saver on ?

7 ultimate, yeah. I can set the monitors to turn off after x amount of time. Think that'd work?

Not at all. Only trying to narrow it down+ help another player out. Don't know if u have shortcut that u made, mouse clicking the option or using Win+L to quickly lock things up. Is there a possibility u are hitting Win+M also? ((minimizes all + can crash))
What is the feasibility of just turning the screen off / putting keyboard up high?

Addition: Unsure if u said u do or do not have it set to monitor off after X minutes. Perhaps setting to never if it is at a low amount of minutes*

I don't know about keeping the game from freezing, but depending on the age of your daughter, you may just want to disconnect the keyboard and mouse and hide them somewhere...
