The power cable is also always connected to the laptop (after all these years the battery is basically dead) so the "On Battery" options are essentially irrelevant. I've gone through all of the power settings, including the advanced settings and they are all set correctly. When I short press the power button or lift/open the lid the laptop wakes up. if I close the lid the laptop goes to sleep, if I short press the power button the laptop goes to sleep or I can manually put the laptop to sleep. All of the other laptop sleep functions work ok, ie. ATM the only non-windows pgm I've installed is Google Chrome. 99.9% of the time powercfg /requests returns an empty list. It does appear in the powercfg /requests list but I've also run the /requestsoverride cmd for that process. The main problem I have is that when the laptop is open it refuses to go to sleep after 25 mins of inactivity. Win10 appears to be running almost just fine.
It was previously running Win10 using a local A/C (now using a MS A/C). The laptop is an old Dell Latitude E6220 (nice & slow but works well enough for him). The hackers tried to steal some money from his bank A/C (blocked by the bank) and when they finished the laptop was in an unbootable state. I have just completed a full/clean re-install Win10 Pro 64Bit 21H1 (Pro vers installed as per the Windows key associated with the laptop) of my elderly father in-laws laptop after he was hacked on Tuesday.
