      Small update - something else to consider changing - disable Fast Boot.

      Fast Boot means when you restart the computer, it doesn't do a full shutdown. It's likely that counters that are often reset upon a full reboot, aren't reset on a Fast Boot.

      Fast boot used to be called hibernation. It is a fucking stupid nasty feature

      Interesting. But, they also still have hibernation.

      Easy to fix that - admin CMD window -> powercfg -hibernate off

      I meant, they still have a separate function for hibernate. Why would they offer both, if they are the same thing?

      You don't understand fast boot is hibernation. it is 100% the same thing. Just automatic.

      Ahhh. I see.

        Nope - not according to MS

          You read that wrong. it is 100% hibernation. The only thing that article states is that unlike user requested hibernation, it closes all applications first.

            "... a fast startup simply loads the hibernation file (Hiberfil.sys) into memory to restore the previously saved image of the Windows kernel and loaded drivers."

            This is a hibernation explanation is its simplest form.

              Well that seems right on the verge of pointless. The OS itself doesn't take long to come up, and if my state is all lost, I've gone through 95% of the effort of powering down with only 10% of the benefit.

                  Seriously - who needs this? I surely don't. If I'm rebooting - it's because I need a kernel restart/reload, not as a way to kill all my applications - a logoff/logon does that.

                    For the record, at home, I use the actual hibernation on 3 desktops ALL THE TIME. I never actually use shutdown. I can wake them up using my phone from anywhere. When I am done, I hibernate. That isn't to say that I don't reboot them from time to time.

                      While I generally hate it, I can make somewhat obvious cases for why actual hibernate would exist. I don't want it in any business because Windows seems unstable with it. It creates all kinds of support issues. But there is a reason for it to exist. But this weird half assed hibernation where the apps are shut down? That's useless.

                        Exactly. I disable hibernation at work. Sleep also creates all sorts of issues that a reboot will fix. All desktops have any type of sleep/hibernate disabled because there is no need and it potentially introduces all sorts of issues.

                              Exactly - if there was any confusion by my "why do we have this" it was about this fast restart crap - not hibernation itself.. that I fully understand, especially for laptops..

                                For the record, at home, I use the actual hibernation on 3 desktops ALL THE TIME. I never actually use shutdown. I can wake them up using my phone from anywhere. When I am done, I hibernate. That isn't to say that I don't reboot them from time to time.

                                While I generally hate it, I can make somewhat obvious cases for why actual hibernate would exist. I don't want it in any business because Windows seems unstable with it. It creates all kinds of support issues. But there is a reason for it to exist. But this weird half assed hibernation where the apps are shut down? That's useless.

                                Exactly. I disable hibernation at work. Sleep also creates all sorts of issues that a reboot will fix. All desktops have any type of sleep/hibernate disabled because there is no need and it potentially introduces all sorts of issues.

                                So you're a totally anti-green type guy.. no desire to save any electrical power 😛

                                  I am for efficiency. If sleep didn't cause problems and wake over wlan worked, I would do that. 🙂

                                    Troubleshooting a similar issue affecting Dell Precision 5400 and Latitude 7400. In Googling one of those registry strings, I ended up at the following page.
                                    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/power/power-policy-settings

                                    f7f101b2-4c39-4af5-839f-67ceb50e5f25-image.png

                                    I wonder if this is why I only saw the balanced plan available in the power settings.

                                      After modifying the registry settings, I still have the same issue. I can accelerate the issue if I set the system to turn the screen off after 1 minute, the system will sleep immediately after the screen turns off.

                                        Sleep definitely used to cause me all kinds of problems, though it seems to be working (in general) much better than it used it.

                                        WOL - when it works is wonderful! I use it frequently from ConnectWise - we have a single machine on the network never sleep, and that machine wakes anyone I need - normally at least.

                                            yeah, if everything honours that, it's a great feature.
