Hibernation Work Around

[Creek Chick]

Administrator has enforced a hibernation timer which requires me to open laptop lid and relog in after 60 minutes. Is there a way around this? I keep laptop under a shelf on my desk and having to log in several times a day is really irritating.

Not without Admin rights AFAIK.

I would assume (given it's a hibernation timer) that you'd need to be inactive for 60 mins before it'll require you to log in?
If so, that seems perfectly reasonable to me.

If it's just a matter of logging in every 60 mins, regardless of activity - I'd talk to your admin. That seems counter-productive.

You'd have to talk to your admin on this.
No way around it.

We definitely can't (and won't) help you to circumvent admin restrictions & requirements.
