This policy setting manages whether or not Windows is allowed to use standby states when putting the computer in a sleep state.

If you enable or do not configure this policy setting, Windows uses standby states to put the computer in a sleep state.

If you disable this policy setting, standby states (S1-S3) are not allowed.

> [!TIP]
> This is an ADMX-backed policy and requires a special SyncML format to enable or disable.  For details, see [Understanding ADMX-backed policies](./understanding-admx-backed-policies.md).

> You must specify the data type in the SyncML as &lt;Format&gt;chr&lt;/Format&gt;. For an example SyncML, refer to [Enabling a policy](./understanding-admx-backed-policies.md#enabling-a-policy).

> The payload of the SyncML must be XML-encoded; for this XML encoding, there are a variety of online encoders that you can use. To avoid encoding the payload, you can use CDATA if your MDM supports it.  For more information, see [CDATA Sections](http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-cdata-sect).

Added in Windows&nbsp;10, version 1709. This policy setting allows you to specify the period of inactivity before Windows turns off the display.

If you enable this policy setting, you must provide a value, in seconds, indicating how much idle time should elapse before Windows turns off the display.

If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, users control this setting.

If the user has configured a slide show to run on the lock screen when the machine is locked, this can prevent the display from turning off.  The "Prevent enabling lock screen slide show" policy setting can be used to disable the slide show feature.
