Windows 10: Hibernation activates during full blown backup - solution?

Hey Forum


I have an AhsayOBM 7.17.0.50 installed on a Windows 10 Pro Machine and my configured backup takes about 5 hours to complete, but the backup is stopped after 20 min.


Clearly this is the powersettings, but why does a Windows 10 pro 1803 with January update, go into sleep mode, while the backup application is running.


I would argue that a backup should be counted as an active backup and therefor it should not shutdown/hipernate the machine.

Why is the solution a powersetting change?
