Actually, I don't think the problem is restricted to mouse action. I can also see that Explorer in general is much slower than before. New Explorer windows draw slower than before. Also sometimes I even get the Windows system beep when just scrolling Explorer contents (files and folders)...

Before updating from Windows 10 to 11 (22H2 / 22621.2715), I basically never experienced mouse cursor stutter/slowdown. Now it happens many times in hour. I don't know how to reproduce reliably, but it possibly has to do with memory handling or the paging file (virtual memory). It probably...

I have a partially different experience than described on the previous message. Here's how it works for me (laptop HP ZBook Studio 15 G7 Mobile Workstation, monitor Asus VG27AQL1A): - Computer on, pressing power button on external monitor = in practice nothing else happens but monitor switches...

Ok thanks, but is your hibernation on the Modern Standby computer like mine: no USB keyboard/mouse wakeup is possible (and Wake-On-LAN doesn't work either), so there's no way to wake the laptop in any other way but by pressing the power button under the lid? When at home, I keep my laptop closed...

Are you sure this information is accurate? I have seen information contrary to this. For example, in many threads I have read that Linux does support S3 on machines which only allow Modern Standby on Windows. Which would mean that mainly Microsoft is responsible for this.

There are many discussions elsewhere about "Modern Standby", aka "Modern Sleep", "S0ix", "S0 Low Power Idle". It's all about nobody understanding why Microsoft forces that and doesn't allow the good and old S3 Sleep mode. In short, a computer in the S0ix mode will run extremely hot while in...
