Screen Shutdown

[souxie]

Hi,
I am running Windows 10 and as soon as I stop using the laptop for a break (for a cuppa) the screen closes down which is annoying when I am watching TV or a Film, it seems there is a "shut off" time but I do not know how to stop it.
Please be aware I am totally useless at anything IT so any help would be great but please keep it simple.

Many thanks in advance

Select the 4 panel windows logo bottom left or the windows key on the keyboard.
Settings
Personalisation
Lock Screen (scroll down)
Screen Timeout Settings.
Set your preferences.

Again use the windows button or icon.
select all apps
scroll down and look for skype( all apps are listed alphabetically)
If it is not listed you will need install it
If it is there select it and sign in or make an account.
