I think a reboot fixed that thanks! I'll check again over the coming days! Thanks again!

Thanks for the very detailed tutorial, appreciated. I landed on this page after I realised that my laptop was using Wifi over Ethernet when both are plugged in. I'd like Ethernet to be used instead. I followed the instructions, Ethernet had already a lower number but I went ahead and assigned...

I'm confident they won't come up with anything useful. I seriously doubt I will manage to get past the first level of support where they send me canned replies asking to update, restart and re-install. Thanks for the instructions, I'll take a look. That said, this morning for the first time I...

One thing I was thinking: with my S3-enabled laptop one constant issue I had was peripherals waking up the laptop. The laptop is connected to a dock which provides charge but also connects the laptop to many more peripherals. With S3 I could see what had woken up the laptop and take action...

Thanks. I'll make sure I express my disappointment to Lenovo then. Finger crossed.

Nope, found a warm laptop again with fans spinning with lid closed despite now being disconnected when in S0 modern standby. Any ideas how to mitigate that before I move to Hibernating it?

Sorry I poorly worded that. I meant that maybe something happens that is telling the laptop to move from that 1-2W status you mentioned and go full power? Can that happen while in S0? I'm ok with WU running when in S0 and plugged in. But not for 12 hours in a row :) If it still misbehaves...

Thanks for the clarification. My laptop is brand new with a brand new Windows 11 Pro installation. My experience is that almost every single time the laptop has fans on (it's a Ryzen 7 so it should be the coolest of the lot compared to gen 12 intel!) and I've heard Whatsapp notifications while...

Hi Brink! I have already, thanks, I'll see how it behaves over the next few days. I can imagine it might make a big difference if none of those online processes are going to run.

Thanks Denis, I wouldn't mind the laptop using some downtime to do tasks which would otherwise burden the CPU during regular use. What I cannot accept is to return to the laptop 12 hours later after the lid was closed and find it hot, with fans spinning at half speed and hearing Whatsapp...

My new Lenovo Yoga 7 Pro x - AMD platform - is running all night with fans on and I think it's nonsensical I could understand a 30/45m time when Windows runs some maintenance tasks but not 24/7. I tried disabling S0 from Powershell but S3 did not become available and I don't see options in the...

I found the solution. I plugged it back on my desktop W10 and noticed it was using a MICROSOFT driver from 2015. So I went back to Windows 11, "upgraded" manually to a 2015 MICROSOFT driver and it works now. This is so bad :D

Hi all, I have a weird problem with my Lenovo Yoga laptop, AMD platform. This is a Lenovo 3.0 Ethernet adaptor, PN RTL8153 which suggests a Realtek 8153 IC. If I plug it in, it gets recognised and gets drivers. If I plug an ethernet cable in it, I have lights, Windows says "identifying" but...

Thanks for the heads up. But I am interested in what happens inside the bat file.

@zbook Can you please confirm those batch files do not run anything which is changing anything on my system? I see SFC and DSIM, are all the commands in "view" mode only? Thanks
