Aurora R10, screensaver issues after update to Win 10 20H2
Anyone else having screensaver not working issues after updating to 20H2?
Seems that having game controllers plugged in causes the screen-saver not to work.
But why on earth was it working fine in Win 10 1909 before updating to 20H2?
Are we supposed to unplug everything after gaming?
or let the start icon and other icons burn in ghost images?

You might want to report this to Microsoft. However, it might be "by design" or the controller is constantly communicating with computer.
I haven't used visible screen-savers in many years. I just tell Windows to put the monitors into a power-saving sleep mode.

In addition to screensaver not working - blanking the screen is also affected when the Thrustmaster Warthog throttle or Logitech X56 game controllers are plugged in.
Surprisingly Win 10 already had disable wake un-ticked in the device manager for the affected game controllers.. but still no screen-saver or monitor auto blank unless the game controllers are unplugged..
They all worked great under 1909, so I am hoping this gets fixed on the next update for 20H2.
