You can prevent your computer from going to sleep by clicking on Start, Settings, Power, Screen and Sleep, and then selecting the "When plugged in, put my device to sleep" and selecting the option "NEVER".

If you are using Norton antivirus, make sure that Windows Defender is disabled. But personally, I think you are wasting money buying Norton. I stop using third party antivirus programs at least 5 years ago, and I have not had any issues.
