    Is anything running when various sleep modes are launched


    Will Win 7 Pro run any type of programs/maintenance..etc...when I put the PC in sleep - stand by - or hibernation ?

    Mostly interested in sleep/standby

    Will operations like updates, system backup, or file backup run iatit's scheduled time if any of the subject modes/conditions are active ?

    Thanks...TRinAz

    Enable Wake Timers in Advanced Power Options under Sleep.

    Type Scheduler in Start Search box, study all Scheduled Tasks which have settings that allow waking to perform each.
