Joel from the last of us. When I'm done working, I always put my Windows 10 PC into 'Sleep' mode rather than shutting it down, since waking from sleep mode is faster than booting. I guess a lot of people do this.
Now, when Windows Updates are pending, I get the following options:
Obviously, for people who prefer sleep to shutdown, the most useful option would be 'Update, restart and then go to sleep'. I could click on it, go home, and tomorrow, when I return to my PC, it (a) has been updated and (b) starts fast.
Unfortunately, this obviously useful option is missing. Workarounds are (1) click 'Update and restart', play with my smart phone for some minutes, and then put the PC to sleep, (2) click 'Update and shut down' and accept that I will have to wait the next time I urgently need my PC or (3) click 'Update and restart', go home, and waste 30 minutes of power until the PC automatically goes to sleep. All of these are unsatisfying.
Is it possible to perform 'Update, restart and then go to sleep' using Windows 10 builtins (for example, by issuing some clever command-line command)?

It's a long time problem - Windows 10 is shutting down instead of going to sleep or hibernate.
All the power settings are set to sleep/hibernate/nothing for power button/closing lid/idle etc. And still - sometimes it's just getting shutdown!
Any idea?

Many people have had this error and oftentimes the cause is different, but I want to post a solution I found that completely solved it for me. This problem is caused by an erroneous driver in Windows (that is why Linux and Safe Mode work fine). In most cases, it seems that the device responsible is 'Intel(R) Management Engine Interface' (under 'System devices' in device manager). To solve the problem, you need to right-click and disable the device or roll back the driver to anything older than 11.xxx, don't uninstall the device because you will need to reinstall it manually if this does not fix the problem. For me, disabling it worked and the computer now behaves normally.

I know this will not fix the problem for 100% of cases, but this is the most commonly successful solution that I have found online. I have also found people saying sound card and graphics drivers are to blame, but I have not tested those so I am not sure.
Time to get your hands dirty. It’s also highly tweakable, with a huge amount of the game’s values and mechanics open to alteration through its exposed config files. Xcom 2 ai cheats. In this article I’ll show you how to implement some basic tweaks to get you started—then, once you’re familiar with how it works, you’ll be able to find and alter the game to your heart’s content.Don’t forget to backup any files before you modify them! All you need is a simple text editor like Notepad (or preferably, ), some basic familiarity with the game, and the time and patience to find what you’re looking for. When your tinkering breaks your game, you’ll want to be able to set things back to normal without reinstalling.

So I had the same issue since the last Windows update (also an Asus laptop).Finally managed to resolve it. I think what happened was that it somehow lost the original settings, became null or something.To resolve just go to the power setting option and under the 'When I close the lid' change it to 'do nothing' and save. Then open it again and change it back to 'Sleep' and save.Should work now.

This seems to be in general related to power management of the device Intel(R) Management Engine Interface in Device Manager under System devices.
AutoCAD now features a vast array of tools to manipulate point clouds and construct geometry. Other FeaturesAutoCAD 2014 has support for point cloud project files (RCP) and multi indexed scan files (RCS). Layers are now sorted in ascending order instead of random. Autocad 2014 crack 64 bit.
In device properties, You can uncheck/ untick the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power option. This is described graphically here (also the source of the screenshots!).

Just solved the issue on my laptop. In my case, I had to update to the latest Intel MEI driver (or replaced it with the right version? See note below).
Steps I took:
- Went to Intel Download Center and searched for Intel MEI
- Looked for 'Intel® Management Engine Driver for Windows 8.1* and Windows® 10', downloaded, and extracted.
- In Device manager, under
System Devices
, I right clicked Intel(R) Management Engine Interface, then Update Driver -> Browse my Computer -> Browse. - Navigated and selected the consumer MEI driver under
ConsWindowsDriverPackagesMEIwin10
- Clicked next. I was informed that the driver had been successfully installed. The driver version reflected that, changing from
11.some.thing
into1904.12.0.1208
- Rebooted
On next reboot, I tested stuff out, and everything worked fine. The shutdown instead of sleep issue was fixed.
I'm guessing that Windows Update installed the wrong drivers for my laptop given that the version numbers are wildly different. In contrast to another top voted answer, I had to update as there was nothing to roll back to.

Hi, I built my PC around 2 years ago and since then there was not a single problem, but then around 1 month ago the problems began: I wasn't able to wake it with mouse or keyboard anymore. At first i just had to turn off the power switch for 15 seconds (less time did not work) and boot again, but then the only way to restart windows was to clear CMOS every time. Now I have disabled fast boot in BIOS, and it restarts every time, but the sleep problem perisits; if I turn off power just for a few seconds the system acts like it is waking from sleep, and the open programs are still there.
I've tried to change power settings, enable/disable hybrid sleep, restore hibernation file, update BIOS, repair update Windows, but nothing worked.
Can you guys help me? Thanks.
