I'd absolutely love to use it on my secondary machine, a desktop PC running Windows 10 – just hibernate and pick up right where I've been a few days later without leaving it in standby blinking its super bright LED aggressively. Sadly if I send it to hibernate the PC will always turn itself back on in the night, so no hibernate for me...
- watermelon0 6y agoYou should check `powercfg lastwake` via PowerShell, and Event Viewer, to determine what wakes up your PC. I had similar issues, and IIRC, I had to disable wakeups for network adapters in Device Manager.

- djs55 6y agoThank you for this -- I've been bothered by my Windows PC not sleeping properly for the best part of a year. `powercfg lastwake` indicated the Ethernet adapter and then disabling the option "Wake on Pattern Match" has allowed the computer to sleep soundly.
- mcv 6y agoI really do not understand Windows 10. It really seems like Windows 10 laptops and PCs are unable to sleep. They keep waking up, and then refuse to sleep. Frequently I find my work laptop in the morning turned on by itself, screen on, fan blowing enthusiastically. Power management in Windows 10 seems to be utterly broken. It certainly doesn't obey any of my settings.
