  1. Windows 11 automatically shuts down after being idle for long time


    I normally download many stuff at night. I put them in download, and go to sleep. However, when I wake up, the computer has already shut down. When I boot it, the previous state is retained - like all apps that were opened are still opened. But, the download is stopped. Example - I tried setting up a 100 GB+ files from Steam and Ubisoft App, and opened an Excel Sheet, for testing purpose. I left all of them running for all night. When I woke up and booted the system, as usual , the files were not downloaded completely. However, the Steam app, Ubisoft app and Excel app were opened in exactly th

    Bluetooth still on while idle

    Thanks for following the steps. Now, the settings won't take effect if you are only using normal PC idle mode. Normal functionality of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi settings are to stay connected even if PC is idle. With the settings that you have created, we would
    suggest that you set your PC to automatically go to Sleep or
    Hibernate
    once idle. In this way, the settings "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" should take effect.

    To set your PC to automatically go to Sleep or Hibernate when idle, please follow these steps:

    • Open Control Panel, set view by: Small
      icons.
    • Look for Power Options.
    • Click on Change when the computer sleeps on the left pane.
    • Set a timer.

    Please try it out. Hope it helps. If you have any other concerns, don't hesitate to come back to us.
