Hi, I noticed your Aero 15 is losing power gradually when it’s turned off for a while. It seems to drain around 20% each week, but there doesn’t appear to be a clear cause. I’ve seen it record data while off, so maybe a reinstall or another issue is involved. Let me know what you think!

In the control panel, look for the "Fast Startup" setting. It should be under the power options section.

that is incorrect. all fast startup does is partially hibernate the system and turns it off. it hibernate things that are unlikely to change, such as drivers and part of Windows (Restarts does a clean, normal, shutdown and startup, reloading everything fresh). If it were my guess, either there is a driver issue, where a component is not going to its proper power state, or you have system that is Connected. standby enabled (imitate smartphone when going to speed when power button is pressed, keeping modem/wifi still enabled and has everything to still get notifications and calls despite being in sleep. it's not exactly the same, but that is the idea, so that you can quickly resume wireless connectivity from wake up, and not have to wait for wireless card to connect back)
