this task. The Power Options in Windows have a setting to turn off the monitor after xx amount of minutes when
your computer is idle. While this works, setting it to kick in too fast can be annoying because you don’t want the

turn off your monitor manually but have you ever tried to turn off a laptop screen? Most laptops don’t offer this
feature. Sordum Monitor off Software is an Utility to Switch Off your Desktop or Laptop Monitor with single Mouse
