Analog of SetThreadExecutionState in kernel32.dll for UWP

Question

Many if not all "classic" WinAPI functions (including SetThreadExecutionState in kernel32.dll ) are not officially supported in UWP. Despite the fact that they can actually work in these applications.

The question is whether there are equivalent? Of course interested in primarily SetThreadExecutionState .

Answer 1

I assume you want a device to stay active while your UWP app is running.

A simple way to achieve that is using

displayRequest = new Windows.System.Display.DisplayRequest();
displayRequest.RequestActive();

// Do not forget to release afterwards
displayRequest.RequestRelease();
