  1. Windows 11 - Need to Prevent WiFi shutting off when going into Sleep


    I have a Surface 7 Pro with Alcantara Keyboard running Windows 11 and using the IntelR Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz WiFi adapter.Running TeamViewer on this device.When I close the keyboard, the device goes into sleep mode. Windows 11 shuts down the WiFi adapter causing the device to be not reachable via TeamViewer.The WiFi adapter does not have any advanced settings tab with settings that allow you to prevent windows from turning WiFi off to when going into Sleep mode and the power saving settings do not have any settings for WiFi either.Any help preventing Wifi from being turned off when going into

    :)

  2. Fans Prevent Windows from Going into Sleep and Ends up Shutting down [HELP]

    Hi,

    I'm using a DELL XPS 15 9550, and I've recently reinstalled windows due to problems with Insider builds messing with my GFX card. Ever since I reinstalled windows, my laptop was never able to go into sleep mode anymore. Even when I try to shut down, it takes
    forever. The screen goes black while my keyboard stays lit and the power is still on. The fans seems to keep running so I'm guessing it is mostly when my laptop gets a bit hot and it prevents shut down or sleep.

    PLEASE do not bother answering if you're going to suggest ANYTHING related to changing power setting. Be smarter than this. I really need a solution, it has wasted a lot of time for me since I am a student and I need to keep some apps open and not shutting
    down.

    Thank you

    Run these steps below:

    Method 1: Follow the steps:

    Method 2: I suggest you to run in-built Power troubleshooter and check. Follow the steps:

    Method 3: If the above method doesn’t help, I would suggest you to reset and restore all of the default Power Plans back with their default settings. Follow the steps.

    Method 4: Lastly I suggest you check your chipset and video drivers, try checking for the updates from the manufacturer's website and update all the necessary drivers, i.e the chipset and video drivers

    Let me know if the issue is resolved or if you require further assistance.
