You might be surprised to find that your computer (possibly) isn’t running at maximum performance (read: speed) when you start looking at your computer’s power plan options. These settings can be found under “power options” in your control panel, as I will show you in a minute. Windows 8 sleep mode options allow you to configure your machine exactly to your preferences and expectations. Your computer will also wake up from sleep mode quite a bit faster than starting after a complete shutdown.
All open windows and running programs will be present in exactly the same state as when the sleep timer kicked in. This means that, when you wake your computer from sleep mode, all tasks that you were doing before it went to sleep can be resumed. Sleep mode is different from turning *off* your computer in that it remembers what you were doing and which programs were open. While this is very convenient on laptops to preserve battery power, some people with desktop computers prefer to remove sleep mode.
We all know that sleep mode puts your computer in a power-saving state after a while of inactivity in order to reduce energy consumption. Could be that this computer just got bored or that it just didn’t like nocturnal labor very much :-)īut hey, there’s a limit to the amount of annoying behavior that we have to accept from computers, don’t you think?
