Screen savers or screensavers (screensavers), the original purpose of which was to conserve the resource of lamp monitors, got their distribution back in the days of widespread use of operating systems of the MS-DOS family. Later, the concept of screensavers was developed in Windows, which includes several preinstalled screensavers. After installing this OS, for the convenience of further work, it makes sense to disable the screensaver or increase the interval for its launch.
