I have a macro put in loop. It works perfectly as long as the screen is on, but once the screen goes off, the execution just pauses with no reason.
I have recorded my pc’s screen using a remote access program that I can force the screen to go off through yet see what happens on the screen.
In the below video the script is running normally and tag wait is set to 3 seconds (as seen in the timer), but when I turned the screen off, the timer paused at 1 second. Additionally, if I wake the screen the script goes on, but I haven’t recorded this part.
Hi, I can not recreate this issue. Is this on Windows with the latest UI.Vision version V6.0.2?
When I run a loop, lock the screen, wait and then unlock again the loop counter has increased as expected.

Hi, a turned off display does not stop my macros. Could it be that your notebook goes to sleep? Make sure you set this to “Never”.
I use a desktop pc and I have the computer to never sleep. Plus, how can I record the video I attached if the computer is asleep?
I assume it’s related to tag waiting (or timeout wait) that pauses when the screen is off?
