Screen Saver stopped working since Big Sur update v11.2.1
It seems that Big Sur has had a problem with screen savers since it came out. When I first got my Macbook Air M1 two months ago it would randomly go into a screen saver mode that was difficult to get out of.
A temporary fix posted on this forum was to insert this: /Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver loginWindowIdleTime 0 at a command prompt. Or.. just close the lid and open it again.
Apple came out a few weeks ago with an update to Big Sur.. which presumed to fix this issue, and perhaps others as well.
Now a couple of days ago, another update to 11.2.1 And now.. I have no screen savers at all. They will display from the settings dialog box, but will not come on as scheduled with the timer.
Anyone else have trouble with screen savers? And/Or am I a lingering victim of inserting that code, and if so.. how can I undo it. Would the original setting have been xxxxTime 1?
Thanks for your time/advice
