Dell laptop in airplane mode and all apps closed when wake up
I have a Dell Latitude E5570 with all drivers/bios fully up to date. Additionally, Windows 10 is fully up to date.
Here is the process I have been using for the past 1.5 years with this laptop and it has been working fine:
When finished working for the day:
- Start -> User -> Lock to lock the computer so when it wakes up I still have all of my apps running.
- Unplug everything from the laptop (including the power cable).
- Shut the lid and make sure the light goes into a soft blinking sleep mode.
The next day when I open the lid the laptop is in airplane mode and the battery is half way drained. Something is definitely running while the computer is in sleep mode.
The same issue happens when I single press the power button to directly put the laptop into sleep mode when finished for the day, then close the lid.
The problem started happening about 3 weeks ago. I am sure it is due to a driver update or something. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? I noticed disabling hibernate in command line fixed the airplane mode issue (but why should I have to do this?). However, it did not fix the battery drain issue.
