Windows 10 screensaver/display help request

Post date: 2023-06-04 18:49:16

I have Windows 10 screensaver and power settings set to go to the screensaver after 4 minutes and turn off the displays entirely after 5 minutes. Neither are working, however: the displays remain powered after 5 minutes and the screensaver is never enabled. I am able to use the "Preview" button in the screensaver control panel to manually turn on the screensaver and blank the displays when I walk away from the keyboard. This isn't quite the same as turning them off, but will do in a pinch. The control panel is hidden away in Windows 10. How can I put the control panel into the dock, or add a keypress binding to go directly to Preview mode, or otherwise fix the settings without reinstalling Windows?
