Mouse Jiggler for Windows

Simulator for mouse movement free

Mouse Jiggler is an easy-to-use Windows utility that simulates mouse movements. It will prevent programs that launch on inactivity, such as your screensaver from running, by doing this, it will also help to stop them from running. Mouse Jiggler is an utility that keeps your computer awake, without you having to touch it.

After a certain amount of inactivity, Windows will usually launch your screensaver or go into default power-saving mode. This will either put your computer to sleep, or turn off the display entirely. You can manually adjust these settings but it can be tedious if you only need to modify settings for intermittent tasks.

This Windows tool basically tricks your computer into staying awake. It is useful for watching movies, listening to music, or performing other time-consuming tasks. You can do these tasks without having your screensaver or power-saving mode interrupt you.

Mouse Jiggler is a portable program so you don't have to install it. Simply download the.zip file and unzip it before you run the MouseJiggle.exe. A dialog box will appear where you can click the 'Enable Jiggle’ box to activate it. Your cursor will now be visible on-screen. The dialogue box can be minimized by clicking the Down button.

You can also choose 'Zen Mode,' which does the same thing but without moving your cursor. You can change your settings with command-line options. The application will remember your settings for each session. You can disable Mouse Jiggler by unchecking the 'Enable Jiggle / Zen Mode' box.

Although the app appears to work flawlessly on Windows, there are many other options. Caffeine simulates keypresses to prevent the screensaver and standby modes from being activated. It offers more options and controls to create a customized experience. PreventTurnOff allows you to choose from multiple options. While Insomniate does the same job and has a standard version that includes a timer as well, PreventTurnOff offers more options.

Mouse Jiggler is an easy-to-use but powerful Windows tool. It simulates mouse movements to prevent annoying screensaver or sleep modes from interrupting your work. It is instant to use - no installation necessary. Caffeine, Insomniate, and PreventTurnOff all offer more functionality.
