Sign in to Google Admin console: Use your administrator credentials to access the console.

This setting is specifically designed to prevent Chrome OS devices from sleeping or shutting down when they are not actively being used, but are on the sign-in screen. This is ideal for public environments like libraries where the devices are meant to be accessible at all times.

Other options are incorrect because:

B: This setting controls wake locks, which are used to keep a device awake under certain conditions. It doesn't directly control sleep behavior on the sign-in screen.

C: This setting controls how users can turn off the device, but doesn't prevent the device from sleeping on its own.

D: This setting controls the maximum length of a guest session, but doesn't affect the device's sleep behavior on the sign-in screen.

To prevent a ChromeOS device from shutting down while idling on the sign-in screen, you need to adjust the power management settings. This can be done through the following steps:

Go to the Google Admin console.

Navigate to Device Management > Chrome Management > Device Settings.

Find the Power management section and locate the setting that controls idle behavior on the sign-in screen.

Adjust the setting to prevent shutdown during idle periods.

Option A is incorrect because idle settings primarily control screen dimming and sleep behavior.

Option B is incorrect because user experience settings generally focus on visual and interaction aspects, not power management.

Option C is incorrect because there isn't a specific "Allow shutdown" setting in ChromeOS device settings.

ChromeOS primarily uses the PEM format for certificate encoding. While it can handle other formats like CER and CRT, it does not support the DER format. DER is a binary format, while ChromeOS requires certificates in a text-based format.
