1.  Change power state during download:

- Make sure the computer does not enter sleep mode during download. You can adjust this in the Windows power settings or use a tool to change the power state (e.g.  enable "Please do not sleep"  ).

2.  Set a timer:

- Set a timer to automatically change the power state back to sleep or  "Please sleep" after the download  . For example, you can set a timer to 15 minutes to make sure the download is complete before the power state is changed again.

3.  Automatic return to sleep mode:

- After the timer expires, the tool should automatically switch back to  "Please sleep" mode or activate another desired power state.

The picture you mention seems to illustrate the steps, so make sure you do all the things as described. This will ensure that the computer stays active during the download and then returns to the desired power state afterwards.

1. Avoid interruptions
The computer stays active during the download and does not go into sleep mode.

2. Optimize energy efficiency
After the download is completed, the computer automatically goes back into sleep mode, reducing energy consumption.

3. Save time
Automated control saves time by avoiding manual adjustments to the power status.

4. Prevent system errors
Prevents downloads from being aborted because the computer goes into sleep mode.

5. Improved user experience
Users can be confident that their downloads will complete without manual intervention.

6. Reduced overheating
The computer does not run at full power for unnecessarily long periods of time, which can prevent overheating.

7. Extended device lifecycle

24. Reduce idle power consumption
Optimize power consumption in idle mode.

25. Reduce environmental impact
Less energy consumption helps reduce environmental impact.

26. Ease of implementation
Easy to implement and configure timers for power control.

27. Increase data security
Ensure that important data transfers are not interrupted.

28. Automatic return to standards
