Windows 10: Disable / Remove Windows 10 Sleep Study

Found this : https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...ep-study/06b1b126-afe6-4b05-bd6e-b5536c2ae8be and can't put an new answer cause thread are closed so here is my reply to it for all who have the same issue ...


- First of all i deleted the folder Windows/System32/SleepStudy and all the files with AVG TuneUp shredder.

- Second i create a new folder with the same name and set the security options for all the types of users like SYSTEM, Administrator, User, TrustedInstaller e.t.c. to denied eg disabled so no one now can access these folder or write files into it


After these changes windows are unable to create the *.etl files and other folders in the folder SleepyStudy ... so i guess ive fixed these problem

:)

 

Disable / Remove Windows 10 Sleep Study

Please tell me how I can Disable / Remove Windows 10 Sleep Study

Windows 10 incorrectly identifies my desktop as a tablet, most likely because I am using a Dell touch screen monitor. I want to disable and remove the "Sleep Study" and all components as it is an unnecessary drain on system resources. Please note, this
is a DESKTOP system with no battery, no need to monitor screen on times or sleep times. I have tried everything I can find including stopping "ScreenOnPowerStudyTraceSession" in Performance Monitor and setting output files to Read Only. Nothing works. Please
help.

Yes, if you are able to take full control of the folders, you can completely delete the Sleep Study folder from the System 32 folder. I have done so many, many times. But that is of no real importance, because the Sleep Study folders and a new batch of
*.etl files will reappear overnight.

The Sleep Study process is smart enough to create the necessary folders if they do not exist, and promptly begins filling them with more files. I would still like to find a permanent fix for this issue but to be honest, I have not spent a lot of time on
it lately. I've thought about adding a simple batch file to my start up that will delete the files, but that would make it difficult to know if the files were still being produced. It would remove the incentive to find a way to terminate and remove the process
that is creating the mess.

I will look at it again as time permits, but if anyone actually KNOWS how to curtail the Sleep Study process, don't be shy about sharing your success.
