Shawn, Was that a mis-type? Did you mean, "The de-bloat is usually not needed at all."? Personally, I've seen claims of shortened boot times but nothing to indicate anything better than a disk cleanup can achieve [by removing temporary files so they don't get re-read duing boot]. Disk...

Did the procedures listed in post #7 help? Denis

I found that S3 Sleep & disconnected S0 Modern standby used about the same amount of power. Power consumption in S0 Modern standby and S3 Sleep - my post #85 - ElevenForum I cannot answer your other questions. I suspect that you'd need to try the power states concerned in order to find out & I...

I suggest you look at your Desktop in File explorer & write its full path*** into that command [instead of %userprofile%\Desktop] so you'll end up with something like C:\Windows\System32> findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log >"C:\Users\Fred\FredsDesktop\sfcdetails.txt" *** One way of...

The display going off is what initiates S0 Modern standby. If you do not want S0 Modern standby to kick in then you must keep the screen on. I used to achieve this by keeping the display on [power options, turn display off - never] but showing a completely blank screensaver when I chose. That...

Ken, I agree that the definition of S0 Modern standby ought to be amended to allow use of Task scheduler jobs. I think the whole thing is an Intel initiative but MS & the computer makers have certainly taken it up with a vengeance. If you are going to experiment with running scripts then...

Caledon Ken, Have you tried using Macrium scheduler whilst stopping S0 Modern standby progressing into its later phases? I successfully use [Windows] task scheduler to run tasks whilst the computer is in S0 Modern standby. I described my experiences in Running scripts during S0 Modern standby...

OK, I'll add that to my list of experiments. Denis
