Could you please say a little about your backup procedure/steps on the host machine for all your VMs running Reflect X? I figure you're not backing up the VMs themselves, at least not with Reflect X? If you are backing up the VMs themselves some other way I'd be very interested to know how...

In addition to the posted real world experiences see Reflect X Subscription - (Page 47) ... Anyone unsure of what they will pay, follow through on the option and click accept. This will then take you to a checkout page where you can see the final price of the software and what you would pay...

FYI if there's anyone left who for whatever reason still wants to buy v8 Home perpetual single or 4-pack for the same prices they were before Macrium stopped selling them they are still available at the time of this writing at Macrium Reflect 8 Home Edition | DiskImageWorks.com I decided to buy...

I guess I didn't make it clear, my scheduled tasks are running great with no disabling sleep in S0 mode. The method I use rouses the machine in S0 idle mode with sleep enabled. The scheduled task then runs and afterward the machine returns to S0 idle mode. That was my short term goal. Next...

Yet another twist (connected standby) which really does sound like a show stopper if your machine has it, for any hope of nightly scheduled tasks running by any application that doesn't use whatever magic is needed. Thankfully so far I don't think I've seen this. It just makes me laugh to hear...

My take: Yes I agree the gross problems with modern standby you describe and which were analyzed very well by Linus Sebastian a year ago do seem to have been fixed, probably in no small part due to his reporting. The problem remains though with rousing the machine from S0 idle for scheduled...

Based on reading through the Wake sources link (which confirms rdp was a known mechanism) it sounds like simple file sharing might be a much better way than rdp, given there is otherwise no need to make a connection to the machine, which also turns on the display unnecessarily, and then having...

I posted this elsewhere as well but based on the below it seems to me Microsoft may not be keeping it a complete secret how to implement modern standby in applications. The question is after drilling into this, is there in fact a real world useable tool here a developer of something like...

Denis, you may have already known about the below. Based on this it seems to me Microsoft may not be keeping it a complete secret how to implement modern standby in applications. The question is after drilling into this, is there in fact a real world useable tool here a developer of something...

Ah, then my interest was taken the wrong way. I was interested (and dismayed) to learn all stuff this continued to get more and more complex and more and more out of the control of the user. 'Pandoras Box' wasn't the best metaphor since I don't believe hibernation itself is a bad thing at all...

Then the question becomes why would I want to do that. Seems like a really stupid idea to me unless the machine is always connected to power and could/would never be run on battery. Definitely not my use case as I stated earlier in the thread. What would be the benefit exactly to disabling...

Eh? That quip by itself isn't helpful. How exactly? There is no such obvious option to do that on my system. There are no such instructions to do that in Disable Modern Standby in Windows 10 and Windows 11

A little more on Adaptive Hibernate. Haven't really found any hits on this term so far at elevenforum.com but possibly I missed them. Adaptive Hibernate Overview Man this stuff is really a Pandora's Box Also an interesting recent post detailing a suspected Lenovo bug preventing Adaptive...

I'll need to review that.

Exactly. Lenovo used to have a bios setting to flip between S0 and S3. No more. And per the below example manufacturers like Lenovo getting problem reports point people to complain to Microsoft. We have to face it, Microsoft needs to fix this, period end of story. That said I think Lenovo...
