Hmm...
That is very similar to what I am trying to do. My media center is an ordinary PC without a wireless adapter.
My laptop does not have a wired adapter. Both are running the latest Windows...
Thanks!
So your finding is that both partners need a wireless connection to be able to find each other. In other words, the switch is the problem here.
I will have to add a wireless adapter to...
Yes, that was what made me think of the registry change I made.
Thanks again!

I found the first part of the problem.
Because sometimes an unsolicited msn.com page pops up, I found in another article the suggestion to turn off
EnableActiveProbing in...
Thanks.
I tried that, but it made no difference.

Hello,
I have the following set of observations:
- On my laptop, internet is working normal, but:
- The network icon in the systray says "No Internet access" and it is the round icon, not the...
I have a similar problem. The laptop has a Spanish keyboard, but I want to use English as display language.
I have followed the above recipe to force Windows to use Spanish for the keyboard setting...
I wasn't so lucky.
I have a Logitech M590 mouse, which supports both Bluetooth and the Logitech Unifying receiver.
Unfortunately, there is no way to put it explicitly in pairing mode. I suppose...
Could be. Anyway, I have the tool now!
Bart
Yes! I normally use Firefox, but now I tried it with Chrome and that works.
Thanks,
Bart
The download page for this tool still exists, but unfortunately the actual download link is broken.
It seems to be the only source for this tools, because sites like SoftPedia also link to this...
Hello,
I have a local network, part wired and part wireless. Core of the network is a TP-link unmanaged gigabit switch, so tools like wireshark will not be very effective.
I am trying to setup...
Amazing! I have been struggling with this for years! Microsoft sure knows how to hide this feature!
Thanks a lot.

I am sure it is sleeping and not hibernating. The power led is blinking, and when I press the power button the system is back on almost immediately.
I am not sure how the system behaves when on...
It seems that the Insomnia tool does what it promises. The laptops both did not sleep since I installed it.
Of course, this does not answer the questions what the real cause of sleep is.
Bart
Thanks.
powercfg /SYSTEMSLEEPDIAGNOSTICS /duration 10 gives me one sleep event, but I can't deduct why it went to sleep.
I found many event 42 in the event log. There were only 2 Sleep...
We have two laptops running Windows 10 Pro version 1703. Both show the following problem:
When the laptop lid is closed, the laptop goes to sleep or hibernation after a random time. I have tried...
Thanks, but I tried that before. Until now, I found nothing similar to my problem.
Little programs that simulate user activity seem to work sometimes, but not always. Programs like qBittorrent,...
Thanks for your quick response!
powercfg does not tell me much: /lastwake: Wake History Count - 0
/waketimers: There are no active wake timers in the system.
Plus: my problem is not that the...
Well, that is not what I see. Last night, I had event 42 at 00:24:32, system enters sleep by application API. No clue which application.
Two seconds later, I see event 107, the system resumes from...
Update: the problem still exists. I have set everything in group policy that may have to do something with sleeping to prevent sleeping, but nothing helps. I have reinstalled Windows 10, but the...
Both build 14393.0 (which seems to be the official anniversary update) and Insider build 14901.1000 do not show this problem. I don't have a later build yet.
It seems to be something bizarre. The...
I now found out that the option "Inhibit System Sleep when Torrents are active" of qBittorrent does work. So I keep a torrent active all the time (at a very low bandwith), and my laptop stays awake....
Not only that, but now it does a shutdown in stead of sleep. That is NOT what I am looking for!
