    SLEEP ON DESKTOP


    Can anyone help me with a sleep mode problem on my desktop computer, please.
    Following a recent update from Microsoft, my current state is not restored when wakening from Sleep mode. Instead it tediously presents the Sign In page, then fails to return to most of my previously opened Apps. In fact it takes longer to reach operational mode than it does booting up from cold.
    I can find nothing in the settings to correct this problem.

    :)
