How in the hell can this possibly happen?

I shut the lid on my SP3 with Windows 10 at 32%.

2 days later, I turn it on, and I'm down to 8%. So I figured something must be happening in the background that I am unaware of...I didn't leave any windows or apps running, just closed the lid. Losing 24% in 48 hours with a hibernated machine? Huh?

Attached is the sleep study report...shows everything in green which I take to mean, from what I read, very little CPU usage.

Any ideas?

Hibernation is not working as intended under Windows 10 as if yet....

Failing to see any problem here I'd be pretty happy with that to be honest!

For the hell of it I might try the same test with my Surface, though it's very rare I'll go even a single day without using it.

Also if you want to eek out a little more battery life you can enable hibernate to work like Windows 8.1 does. Just go to your power settings->advanced and click sleep and set the hibernate to 240 mins on battery and/or power.

Also... have you got battery saver mode on?
