Exit command prompt to remove all customized power plans.
Create a new power plan and customize it according to your needs.

The power of the command prompt is not to be underestimated!
I had been plagued with constant issues when putting my computer to sleep and recently found out my hibernate config was just corrupted.
powercfg /hibernate off
powercfg /hibernate on
And voila.
I tried fiddling with settings and downloading apps to "manage sleep issues" for weeks. CMD FTW!

This explains how to change the different power plans. Is this where you are changing it?

If you are talking about windows then most probably this data is stored in windows registry. Unsure if you can make one particular branch of registry read-only, but you can probably change access rights to it so that it could not be changed (I never tried it myself, so I'm not sure it's possible.)

On some computers, it is possible that a program installed by the computer manufacturer (or installed with a hardware driver) manages the way the screen turns off, and this despite the Windows settings. Try to see if you have a program somewhere in your Start Menu to manage energy consumption or display (especially one with the name of the computer manufacturer).

Somewhere in Windows registry if I recall. That being said, there's a few ways where you can edit the inactivity display power off instead of registry.
