Windows 10: My computer will not hibernate anymore it turns straight back on

On Windows 10, hibernate is broken You close the lid and the laptop can catch fire in your backpack because Hibernate is not a reliable command anymore. Other applications or drivers on Windows 10 can now cancel your hibernate command and the computer will still work at full power in your backpack - you will take it out at super-hot temperatures as there is no ventilation in a closed backpack I tried various solutions like - powercfg -requests and overwrite some stuff here like powercfg /requestsoverride PROCESS chrome.exe AWAYMODE DISPLAY SYSTEM Powercfg -requestsoverride Driver "Legacy

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.
