Nah, I'm pretty sure it just requires giving the background AI agent admin privileges. The agent can already accidentally spend millions of dollars on tokens, apparently, so admin powers don't actually make it all that much more dangerous

At my work, the IT decided that employees should not be allowed to modify this setting for some reason, and it is set to go to sleep if inactive, it is so frustrating. I don't use agents but still had situation that I wanted to have something running when being on lunch for example.

We have to do that because the entire HR department can't figure out how to lock their computers and they keep leaving PII up on their screen while they are out at lunch.

But you can specify different policies for different groups, no?

Also the setting I was looking for is to have screen locked but still have computer running.

You can, but the C suite doesn't want the trouble of finding out who is fucking it up, and they don't want to look like they are singling out any particular person or group, so they just tell us to set it as company standard policy. For everyone except them of course.

My mcp server won’t change it for me so therefore it’s impossible.
