My Framework 16 keeps on overheating after I put it in my bag because it isn’t sleeping properly.
After checking powercfg /a, it seems like even when the laptop is unplugged, the system still defaults to network connected standby.
I want to use only Modern Standby (S0 Network DISCONNECTED Mode), not Connected Standby (S0 Network CONNECTED Mode). Is there any way to force windows 11 to turn off the Connected Standby?
After doing some Google Searches, I have found a guide on it in tenforum/elevenforum.
Here is the link if anyone needs the information.
Enabling/Disabling Network Connectivity in Control Panel:

Getting the setting to show up in Control Panel:
If you disconnect the wifi manually does it still overheat in bag?
I have not tried disconnecting the wifi. I have turned off Network Connected Modern Standby while on battery.
Unfortunately, this (as in Network Disconnected Modern Standby) still doesn’t solve my issue and on the way home today, my Framework lost like 30% and overheated in my bag. At this point, I think I’ll just try to enable S3 sleep if cannot find another solution.
Yes, S0 is buggy on Windows. I would highly recommend that you switch to S3.
However, your case here is wonky. By default, S0 is set to use 5% of battery and then enter hibernation. So, for you to be losing 30% is a bit high, and I am curious why you are not entering hibernation?
I’m not sure if it’s because it suddenly decided to wake when I close my lid. I set my settings so that it doesn’t sleep when the lid is closed for RDP purposes. This might be the cause? I did make sure to press the power button to sleep before closing the lid though.
Also is there any way to not put it into hibernation? I’m starting to get worried about my SSD’s durability because my system has 96GB of RAM and hibernating causes a huge amount of reads + writes every time.
Windows will show “connected standby” because they removed the switch that Windows 10 had for it. But that does not mean anything.
If you check the report powercfg /sleepstudy will even show that Windows disconnects from the internet when sleeping on battery (at least on my systems).
Now, the WiFi card might be doing its own thing. By default, the Intel AX210 cards have Wake-over-WiFi enabled and therefore keep the WiFi connection itself active as long as they can, even if Windows thinks it disconnected. But it will not actually wake Windows up and disconnecting it does not change the power consumption in standby. So it does not even mean anything if you can see your notebook remain connected to WiFi from the AP.
The sleep-study report will also give info if the device woke up for some reason and then simply never went back to sleep due to sleep settings.
And the device getting hot in the bag when you waited to put it in the bag until the fans came to a complete and full stop is some kind of bug.
Is there any way to switch to S3 sleep, I checked my registry editor and it doesn’t seem like there is a PlatformAoAcOverride file in it. Should I just make it myself?
Also I have found out that once it detects the lid close action, the device just automatically wakes up again for no reason. Is there any way that I can make it stay asleep without having the constantly change the action on close lid settings?
I close the lid after putting it to sleep and it just wakes up around 5 seconds later. That seems to be the cause of my battery drain.
so one annoying thing that Windows seems to do is allow the network cards to wake the device. In device manager check your wifi card under the power management tab and make sure that it is not allowed to wake the computer.
That would be my first bet.
Also with the registry edits and a reboot you should have S3 enabled.
Use powercfg /a to see what suspend options are available to confirm.
Unfortunately, I can’t find the file that needs to be edited in the registry. Do I have to make it myself?
I had the exact same issue. I run Windows11. I left the laptop in my backpack overnight and when i pulled it out the next day it was hot, and the battery was down to 10%. I added the “Hibernate” state back and additionally added the Option in the Advanced Power Plan Menu back with the Registry from this guide: Add Networking connectivity in Standby to Power Options in Windows 10 | Tutorials (tenforums.com)
P.S.: that first instance of the laptop getting hot was propably because i left word open and the current version of word is just a battery draining beast…
Sorry that I didn’t respond earlier. The forum ate this, hahaha. But yes you have to add that key there. Find a guide online, it will detail the process much better than I can kind of remember it here.
Also to address that issue of you not entering hibernation during S0: you are probably still using connected standby. You want to disable this. Look up a guide on how to disable S0 Connected standby. Then to be really sure, because it will mess things up in all forms of suspend, you need to go into device manager, under network adapters, your wifi card properties, power management tab, and ensure that it is not allowed to wake the machine.
Do all of this and suspend and hibernation should work just fine.
Also one thing I wanted to let you know, is that Windows uses compression and also does not copy the entire system memory. ONLY the memory in use. This is how the system can cold boot in under 10 seconds from hibernation. It is GREATLY improved, far far far better than hibernation on Linux.
