I had determined that a strange but then unknown Windows issue caused this problem and that Linux completely resolved it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was correct! I found an article on a new web site, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spacebar.news\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.spacebar.news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SpaceBar<\/a>, that explains the problem quite nicely.  The article, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spacebar.news\/p\/windows-pc-sleep-broken\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.spacebar.news\/p\/windows-pc-sleep-broken\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Windows PCs can&#8217;t sleep properly, and Microsoft wants it that way<\/a>, describes a problem with Windows that perfectly matches the symptoms exhibited by that laptop. This is apparently a fairly common problem with the Windows sleep function. Although there is a circumvention, there is no cure and simple reboots don&#8217;t do anything for it temporary or otherwise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The article is rather long and technical so at least check it out even if you don&#8217;t read all the gory details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">Image by Pexels Free Photos.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back in August I wrote a post about helping a friend who had a problem with her laptop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2571,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5,83],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2566","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-linux","category-problem-solving"],"modified_by":"David Both","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.both.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2566","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.both.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.both.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.both.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.both.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2566"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/www.both.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2566\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2575,"href":"http:\/\/www.both.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2566\/revisions\/2575"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.both.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2571"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.both.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2566"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.both.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2566"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.both.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2566"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
