Remove everything but server=... line from wtware config. With single line server=... and nothing else in config wtware will neither sleep nor disconnect.

If you still get disconnections look at server policies. Windows server can disconnect user after inactivity period.This policy is disabled by default! You or your admin turned it on. Find and turn it off on Windows server.

Group Policy then navigate to "Remote Desktop Services" -> "Remote Desktop Session Host" -> "Session Time Limits" and configuring policies like "Set time limit for active but idle Remote Desktop Services sessions".

How can I avoid this problem? Whenever I'm inactive for a while, I'm automatically disconnected from the session.

To make your monitor stay on all the time do NOT use sleep= option. Default behavior is to never sleep.

Hello, I have a problem with my WTware. I need my monitor to stay on all the time. I tried some settings like sleep=1440, standby. Can someone help me?
