So i have this weird very minor issue on 2 completely different laptops :
-HP pavilion, Intel core i5 9300h, gtx1050, 8GB, Window 10
-Lenovo Legion 5, Ryzen 7 6800H, RTX 3070, 16GB, Windows 11
Both windows installs are fully up to date, but the issue has existed for months on both of them...

Hibernate
The following sleep states are unavailable on this system:

S2
S3
Hybrid Sleep

It seems the Trash Bin isnt affected, somehow.
I have been...
