PC periodically resetting itself to refusing to stay shut down at - Microsoft Community

i'm sure has been mentioned before, i'm going pipe anyway matter of feedback.

savvy user here.  no guru, savvy enough research how navigate labyrinthine mess windows's wake-up policies , settings not more within couple of hours, , glad have control of own computer again , forget matter.

i despise sound of pcs blasting fans on full , jerking awake repeatedly @ night, obnoxiously ignoring fact put them sleep reason.  , it's downright infuriating have update process (i'm imagining did it) reset them after painstakingly shut off.

so, basic user suggestions here:

1) make configuration applet combines ability edit relevant settings, policies, registry entries, etc., regarding wake-up settings 1 place.  should not messy or difficult.  trust ms can this.

2) i've never met person likes personal computer coming on @ night.  if want that, make option opt-in to, not default.

please, microsoft, longstanding thing.  please fix and/or make customizable without having read through variety of forum posts , figuring out of them gives obsolete advice.  i'm quite sure i'm not 1 has found amazingly obnoxious.  resent having re-research every time happens (yeah, yeah, have taken down notes in anticipation of windows update screwing settings, but, again, it's obnoxious expect research project , note-taking savvy user remember weird places discreetly store different settings in regard issue basic 1 being in control of when computer on or off ).

fix, please!

thanks,

chris
