System sleeping during defrag

When time permits, is there a way Defraggler can keep the System awake during a defrag?

On long defrags my system will go to sleep during a defrag. My intent was to let defraggler overnite but that doesn't work when the system goes to sleep.

Thank You for a great product.

If you need to prevent sleeping then change your "Power Options" inside Control Panel accordingly.

True.

Although it makes me wonder why Windows itself isn't "smart enough" to know the defrag API is hard at work and to override power options that would interrupt the defrag API.

There is a caffeine keep awake utility.

Perhaps Defraggler Developers could use something similar, only auto-detect sleep timer settings, then "move" the mouse imperceptibly & back to prevent sleep till complete. For example: Defraggler detects system is set to sleep at 15 min, so at 14 min & 45 sec, it moves mouse slightly, then back... Each 14 & 45 seconds or so.

By having a 15 second overlap, can easily have time in case system is "frozen" during hard press while encoding/decoding/strenuous activity.
