AW: PowerScheduler++ Version 1.2.0.10 (RC1)

This is ok.

This setting refers to media sharing, so if you do not use this feature, it does not matter what setting you select here. I recommend Multimedia Settings - When Sharing Media should be set to Allow Computer to Sleep because I learned that "when sharing media" does not mean actively sharing but means if the computer is set up to share. In other words, if you run Windows Media Player and configure it to share media across the network, your computer will never go to sleep unless you change this setting to Allow Computer to Sleep. You can read more on power settings for HTPCs here: Power Settings for a Media Centre PC « Musings of a PC.
