is there a software that can turn off monitor and turn on with a keystroke like macos for windows ?


Question

Hi

there are several software to turn off the monitor/display  on demand, but it's enough a very light mouse vibration to turn in on

 

is there a software that can turn off the monitor/disaply ,maybe disable the mouse and turn on with a keyboard key stroke

 

under mac is better ,it could be turned off using the corners and to turn on is enough to stroke a keyboard key

maybe a free software would be better

I have set windows to turn off the monitor after x minutes , i guess 30 minutes but i would like a software that can do on demand and keep it off

thanks

It's a command-line tool (that has a bunch of features). Simply run "nircmd monitor off" from the command line and your monitor(s) will turn off. You can also create a shortcut to it with the required parameters so you can just double click it.
