  My question is not there in the FAQ
Asked questions on this answer:
  1. I had been using an older program version for a long time, which I started and ended as part of a script with the parameters -bg or exit. Now I have updated to the current version and found that the hide (instead of -bg) and exit parameters do not work. With both parameters, an application of the program is simply opened without further influence ...?
  2. I wanted to configure it so that when I start it will automatically put a 12h timer for not sleeping. I do this in the "Please Don't Sleep" tab, "Options" button where I can choose "Program startup" with the 12h timer. After that I exit the program from the tray icon, open again but I need to set the timer manually just like before. Am I doing anything wrong?
  3. DontSleep has been in use with me for some time. Only one option is missing to me because I often call the program from Scritps (Srat in the tray) and would also like to "kill" it automatically. A call with command line e.g. "/ exit"?
