HP ZBook Fury 16 G10 Mobile Workstation PC IDS Base Model

Hi


I noticed that my laptop (Zbook Fury G10) doesn't fully sleep or hibernate. Even after placing the laptop in one of these modes, the fans are on, the device wakes up unexpectedly, and draws battery. This might be occurring due to "Modern Standby" as some online forums suggested. Is there any way to disable this shallow sleep, and use full sleep as I could get on earlier devices? I could not find any option in the BIOS or Windows 11.

 

The shallow sleep is not useful, since it wastes energy by necessarily waking up, and could be harmful, such as when the device wakes up when inside a bag and starts overheating and draining battery.

 

[Shutting the device down is not feasible always, since shutting down the device also deletes cached licenses of some subscription software I use, and the places I move to might not have an internet connection I can use. I did not have this issue with a prior HP laptop I owned.]

 

Thank you!
