Cannot turn off hibernation

We have two relatively new identical HP ProDesk 400s running Windows 10. The computers often go into hibernation over night, preventing us from being able to log in remotely, and we can't shut off that feature. Our IT guy is also baffled. We have tried:



Turning off hibernation in Windows

Turning off hibernation in a command shell being run as administrator

Changing the Windows power settings to high performance

Updating Windows, drivers, BIOS

Turning off power saving options in the BIOS

Deleting Energy Star

Setting the BIOS to have the computer wake up every morning at 7:00 automatically



Basically, we have tried everything that makes any intuitive sense and anything the intertubes suggested we do. All HP could suggest in addition is reinstalling Windows, which is a bigger step than we would like to take.

 

Night Light doesn't automatically turn off in the morning

Hi,

Tried out the methods in comments sections but problem still exists. Here, is what i have noticed.


SCENARIO 1.

Night light set ON time 2100 HRS and OFF at 2115 HRS.

1.if the computer is ON @ 2115 HRS night light turns off automatically. (correct)
2. If the computer is shutdown @2110 HRS and switched ON @ 2120 HRS. Night light is off at login. (correct)
2. if the computer was put to sleep @ 2110 HRS and resumed @ 2120 HRS, night light does not turn off. (incorrect).

Basically night light dosen't work properly after a sleep or hibernate happens.

 

Battery drain in hibernation

This is a volunteers forum. We cannot fix anything for you!

I would start by taking these steps:

1. Put Windows into hibernation.
2. Get it out of hibernation.
3. Check the time stamp of the hidden file C:\Hiberfil.sys. Does it reflect the time when you took Step 1 above? If it does not then the machine was not in hibernation.
4. Before going to bed, make a note of the battery charge.
5. Switch the machine off and unplug the power cord.
6. Next morning, before plugging in the power cord but after turning it on, make another note of the battery charge. If there is a noticeable discharge then you have a leaky battery or a problem with the motherboard. Windows can't be the culprit because it
   was off all night.
