In the process of evolution of computing technology, the concept of energy saving has developed, which has become especially popular in computing models related to the categories of mobile and portable devices. For example, the low power mode, also known as standby mode, has been implemented in most PC components (from the central processor to the video card and monitor). De-energizing the peripherals on your home PC is just annoying, so here it makes sense to disable the switch to standby mode.
