Driver Console "Settings" panel is empty / Missing "OFF-State" configuration

Hello spacedesk support team,

I am experiencing an issue with the spacedesk Driver Console (v2.1.x) on Windows 11. I am using a secondary Android device connected via USB as an internal hardware monitor inside my PC case.

The Problem: When I select the “CONNECTIONS” tab in the Driver Console, the right-side panel remains completely empty or does not show the “SETTINGS” section. I am specifically looking for the “OFF-State: None” menu to configure the “Connected – Display Off” behavior, but the options simply do not appear, even after toggling the driver ON/OFF or restarting the application.

Current Setup:

Host OS: Windows 11 (Version 10.0.26200).
Connection Type: USB Cable Driver Android (ON).
Client Device: Android Smartphone.
Goal: I need to find the option that allows the secondary display to stay active (or reactivate automatically) to monitor temperatures via AIDA64, even when the main Windows monitors enter power-saving mode.

What I’ve tried:

Toggling the Driver ON/OFF.
Expanding all nodes in the “Communication Interfaces” and “Connections” tree.
Reinstalling/Updating the Android client app.

Could you please clarify if this menu has been moved or if there is a Registry key I can modify to force the “OFF-State” to “None” or “Connected – Display Off”?

Thank you for your help.

Hi @jose-21,

There has been no “Settings” section under the “Connections” tab in the Driver Console. Can you identify the Driver version where you saw this option in the Console?
