Mouse Mover Keep Awake 2026 is a tiny, free mouse jiggler and keep awake tool for Windows 10 and 11. It gently moves the mouse a single pixel on a timer and tells Windows the PC is in use, so your screen never locks, no screensaver starts, the computer never goes to sleep, and your presence in Microsoft Teams, Slack, Zoom and Discord stays green and active instead of flipping to Away. Set any interval from 5 seconds to one hour, choose mouse jiggle, keep awake, or both, and start or stop instantly with a global F7 hotkey. Perfect for working from home, long downloads, remote desktop sessions, presentations, reading and watching, or any time you need to stop the screen locking and prevent auto sleep, idle timeout and automatic logout. It is a lightweight single executable, no installer, no ads, no telemetry, fully open source under the MIT license. Download the free mouse mover and keep your PC awake in one click.
