Thanks. I have a hard time remembering hotkeys I don't use frequently, but I see that Lock is also on the Start->User menu - that appears to be the same thing. I'm fairly satisfied with my current arrangement (with S0 disabled, and lid closed triggering hibernation) for most situations, but when...

Ah, thanks - I finally found it. I had already looked at Power Options before, but I hadn't noticed the tiny link at the bottom: "Change advanced power settings". And after scratching my head about what number to change the 15 to, I discovered that 0 means "Never". I'll try again to consider...

That's exactly how I thought I had mine set. That's why I am confused about why it is hibernating after inactivity. I see no setting for that - how is that controlled?

But you're not doing that now, right? If you are allowing your screen to turn off now, does it hibernate after the screen has been off for awhile?

Actually, I spoke too soon. My initial test of screen-off was to change "When plugged in, turn off my screen after" to 1 minute, wait until it turned off, wait another 30 seconds or so for good measure, and then move the mouse - it behaved as expected (turning the screen back on without a...

I disabled S0, but I did not gain S3 as an option, so I guess I'm in the same boat as you: PS C:\Windows\system32> PowerCfg -a The following sleep states are available on this system: Hibernate The following sleep states are not available on this system: Standby (S1) The system...

I hadn't tried any of those, because they all say, "This option is only available if your device does not support Modern Standby." I have Win11 Home, so Option Six is not possible, but I tried Option Four. Running Powershell as Administrator: Windows PowerShell Copyright (C) Microsoft...

I already did that, as I tried to explain in my previous comment. If "If you've been away, when should Windows require you to sign in again?" is set to "Never", even having the lid initiate hibernation does not cause the wake-up to require sign-in. After your previous comment here, I asked on...

Is there any way to differentiate between wake-up after only a screen turn-off and wake-up after sleep/hibernation? On my old PC with Win10 (where sleep was apparently S3, although I never knew about those different modes), it would ask for my PIN after sleeping but not if the screen was the...

In that case, in the power menu (and all the settings that talk about sleep) they should call it "Idle" or "Standby", not Sleep. Sigh! From the latest tutorial you linked: Strangely, sometimes waking up from Modern Standby is that way and other times it's about the same as sleep on my old...

PowerCfg -a The following sleep states are available on this system: Standby (S0 Low Power Idle) Network Connected Hibernate The following sleep states are not available on this system: Standby (S1) The system firmware does not support this standby state. This...

I normally keep my PC plugged in and running, sitting open on my desk at home. In that situation, I let the screen turn off after inactivity, but it never enters sleep mode. However, on battery power it will go to sleep after 10 minutes, and also whenever I shut the lid. In Windows 10, it would...
