I'll come back to you on that later.

Powercfg has lots of options, and you may eventually
locate the problem by using it.

I have just run it. See

I haven't tried to digest it yet.
The energy report in this virtual machine run, shows
just how broken a VM is. VMs can't sleep or hibernate,
because the VM manager has its own mechanisms for freezing
Guest state. It happens to make a perfect "victim"
of an energy report, and shows the kinds of things
it can display.

From your report:

*******

Platform Power Management Capabilities:Supported Sleep States

Sleep states allow the computer to enter low-power modes after
a period of inactivity. The S3 sleep state is the default sleep state
for Windows platforms. The S3 sleep state consumes only enough power
to preserve memory contents and allow the computer to resume working
quickly. Very few platforms support the S1 or S2 Sleep states.

S1 Sleep Supported false
S2 Sleep Supported false
S3 Sleep Supported true === Sleep or Hybrid Sleep (uses Hiberfile)
S4 Sleep Supported true === Hibernation state

*******

Looks like thumbs up, fully operational to me.

While you seem to have selected a "High Power" schema in
your Power control panel, the web-page-like report offers
no veiled threats at all. It should still be able to
transition from that mode, to Sleep state. That's what the
quoted material above says.

I selected high powwer some months ago when my problem was waking it
up. It eventually turned out to be a problem with Wi Fi interference,
but I never changed the power setting.

It really should be working, as far as the report is
concerned.

You can check the Reliability Monitor, and see if it
is crashing, every time it tries to go to sleep. The
Energy Report might not see that part, but Reliability
might have it.

The reliability monitor shows the occasional problem but nothing which
remotely synchronizes with me leaving the computer to shut down.
Whatever the cause, it arrived with 1809 Mk1. Something has changed.
