Windows 10: Laptop slow to wake up after Windows 10 upgrade

My laptop started taking extra long to wake from sleep mode immediately after upgrading to Windows 10. The problem has persisted for several months. Startup time seems normal, and the computer enters sleep mode quickly after shutting the screen. I always choose to receive updates automatically, so all updates, drivers, etc. should be up to date. There is no new software installed since the upgrade. What happens is when I open the laptop and strike a key, touch the touchpad, or move my wireless mouse, the light around the touchpad comes on, so I know the computer is trying to wake up, but the screen remains black for various amounts of time- sometimes only 30 seconds or so, but most of the time several minutes, until finally the lockscreen appears. I've checked to make sure the keyboard is set to wake the computer under Devices. I've searched for a solution, and although there are instances of people having the same problem, I have not found a solution. I've listed my system specs that I think would be pertinent. Thanks for any help regarding this issue.*Smile

Dell XPS laptop won't wake up from sleep mode after upgrade to windows 10

I see this is happening to many people... where are you Microsoft?

After upgrading to Windows 10 my laptop will not wake up from sleep mode.

 

Why are the default Windows 10 wake up settings for Laptops as they are ?

Correct it was an upgrade from Windows 7 Pro. The most disturbing wake up is the reboot after Windows update as it wakes up the Laptop which I never want. I think it is much better to tell you to reboot (never force it) after you woke your Laptop up.
