I’ve turned off Power Mgmt options as I always did with previous laptops but my laptop keeps turning the power mgmt / put USB ports to sleep options back on. It’s bedeviling. I had some luck after it not being connected for to internet for a while, but when I updated Cantible and a couple of plugins, Windows turned that power mgmt stuff back on. Any way to permanently preventive this? It’s labor intensive to keep checking all of those settings in the device mgr. Thanks for any tips!
This is usually caused by Windows Update. My way to prevent these problems is to disable Windows Update.
A bit extreme, but it works.
Thanks. I did turn off Windows Update, I thought. Seems like 5 weeks is the limit at any given time. I guess I just have to make sure it’s off before connecting to the internet.
I use this tool to completely disable Windows Update and other Windows 10/11 features.
Please be warned that improper use may cause Windows to malfunction.
