Waking up the computer out of sleep mode for the scheduled FTP transfer
-
Will automated scheduled transfers still occur if the computer is in sleep mode? Does this setting need to be changed to "never sleep"? Or is there way to accomplish sleep mode and scheduled transfers?
Thank you for your help!

You can set the Auto FTP Manager scheduled task to wake Windows from sleep mode.
There are 2 step to do this;
-
Go to "Control Panel >> Power Options >> Edit Plan Settings" for the power plan you are using. Then select "Change advanced power settings". Next, go to "Sleep >> Allow wake timers" and enable them.
-
Go to Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Task Scheduler. Open Deskshare >> Auto FTP Manager and double click on the scheduled transfer profile. Select the 'Conditions' tab and click the box for 'Wake the computer to run this task'.
