Windows 10: WIN10 will not keep no sleep (HD & Display) setting

Hi all-

The power setting in my WIN10 system will not keep 'no sleep' on both the HD and display regardless of overall setting, ie., Balanced/High Performance etc. It always reverts back to some stock config that I'm trying to remove. I download large bgls for my flight simulator over a not so fast connection and going to sleep after 2 hours (of essentially 3.5 hr dload) totally borks everything.

Any ideas power manager folk out there?

Thanks,
Mark
