Description

Installation method

GitHub

Running as admin

Yes

Area(s) with issue?

Awake

Steps to reproduce

A) When I select "Keep awake on interval" and then "30 minutes" my computer will correctly be prevented from sleeping for the next 30 minutes. But as can be seen in the below screenshot only "Keep awake on interval" is ticked, and not "30 minutes". This makes it impossible to know for sure what option has been selected.

The next screenshot shows that PowerToys Awake is preventing the computer from entering sleep mode.

B) After the 30 minutes have passed PowerToys Awake is no longer preventing the computer from entering sleep mode, as can be seen from the screenshot below.

But PowerToys Awake is still indicating that "Keep awake on interval" is active, as can be seen from the screenshot below.

✔️ Expected Behavior

A) Expected behavior would be that both "Keep awake on interval" and "30 minutes" are ticked so it is clear to the user what option has been selected. Something like in the below mock-up screenshot.

B) Expected behavior would be that PowerTouys Awake returns to the "Off" (which it did) AND that this is indicated by that option being ticked (which it did not). It should look like in the screenshot below.
