Thanks. It was set to Allow Important Only when plugged in, I’ve disabled it. This prevents me from using Wake-On-Lan, though, which is shitty. I fucking hate Windows.
You can enable hibernate in power settings too. I had to do that when “sleep” would literally just shut off my monitor and nothing else. Didn’t even log out.
Typical Microsoft. “Let the user decide when their computer wakes up? Nah, they let us decide what’s important or it stays asleep.”
You can also set a group policy to allow no updates at all except when you approve and download them manually.
Ridiculous that you need the group policy manager for the basic setting of “don’t put shit on my PC without asking,” but here we are.
Is gpedit even included in retail/OEM windows licenses these days? The vast majority of users wouldn’t know how to do that anyway, hell it’s a swamp even for power users.
