Saving power

Disable Fast startup
Your computer uses Fast startup to start quickly, but also uses a
small amount of power to check for signals to start. These checks
will slowly drain your computer's battery.
If you prefer to reduce your computer's power requirements and
environmental impact, turn off Fast startup:
Note
If Fast startup is off, your computer will take longer to start from Sleep.
Your computer will also not start if it receives an instruction to start over
a network (Wake on LAN).
1. Press the Windows key or select the Windows Start button then
search for "Choose a power plan".
2. Select Choose what the power buttons do.
