Screen dimming problem on Lenovo Yoga Running Windows 11

How do i stop my laptop from dimming the screen if i don't do anything for several minutes ? I have the screensaver set for 20 minutes. I have Lenovo Yoga 7 x64 based system for Windows 11 Home.

    Press Windows + R, type control desk.cpl, and press Enter.

    Under the Screen Saver dropdown, ensure it’s set to (None) if you don’t want a screensaver.

    Click Change Power Settings link at the bottom to ensure no conflicting settings.

    To extend the time before the screen turns off when the device is plugged in, simply tap the setting for the desired duration.
