Idle Info is a small system idle information tool that indicates if your computer can idle properly. It monitors your System Execution State, which can potentially change the expected behavior of some system and display power saving features. If you experience issues with these features, it's important to know the execution state in which your system is running at all times.

System Requirements

Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7

Features

• Monitors your System Execution State.
• Monitors the amount of time spent in various execution states, represented in format hh:mm:ss.
• Monitors user input idle time.
• Monitors changes to screen saver functionality.
• Very small, efficient, and easy to use with no installation required.

System Execution States

The following execution states are monitored:

• None: Good. Your system and display should implement power settings as expected.
• System Required: Your system is in use and might not implement power settings as expected.
• Display Required: Your display is in use and might not implement power settings as expected.

Note: System and Display are mutually inclusive, meaning they can both be required at the same time.

• Create a shortcut and configure it to launch with a minimized window, or...
• Execute the program with command line argument -tray or -t for short.
