On Windows 11, you can conveniently set your computer screen to turn off at a scheduled time while keeping your system running in the background. This means you'll save on power consumption from your monitor while still having your computer ready to perform background tasks efficiently. In this article, I'll walk you through how to schedule screen shutdown on Windows 11.
How to Schedule Screen Shutdown on Windows 11
Step 1: Access Windows Settings by pressing Windows + i
Step 2: Choose “System” from the left-hand menu > then click on “Power & Battery”.
Step 3: In the Power & Battery settings screen, click to expand the “Screen and Sleep” section.
Step 4: If your computer runs on battery, you'll see a total of 4 setup options. In the case of a desktop computer, you'll only have 2 options.

Similarly, if your computer is plugged in, click on “When plugged in, turn my screen off after” and select a time frame you prefer.
Once you're done, close Settings. From now on, when your PC is inactive for the specified period, the screen will automatically turn off.
