Downloading overnight?
Hi, my internet connection is not that fast, I really want to keep downloading games while I'm asleep, I have Windows 10 running On an MSI Apache Pro... what is the best way to do this? I have tried changing the settings before to not go to sleep or hibranation mode but it still goes to sleep, what's a good solution? thanks

Tell your computer not to go to sleep. What settings have you changed?

I'm on the phone right now but if I remember correctly I haven't made significant changes to the player settings, I just use the buttons at the bottom.
