Bug: Shutdown (Hibernate) disables scheduled tasks?
« on: January 24, 2007, 10:20:54 am »
I've noticed that hibernating from altbinz prevents my other scheduled tasks from running until I next reboot.  Has amyone else experienced this?  It could just be a quirk of my machine (XP/MCE 2005).  Other software hibernate options (inc poweroff.exe) work fine, though.

I think I've solved this one, with some help from Smudge :).  The powrprof.dll actually has three boolean parameters:

Hibernate, ForceCritical, DisableWakeEvent

It's the last one that's causing my problems.  By default, they're set to 1,1,1, whereas to hibernate without scheduled tasks being disabled you need:

rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState 1,1,0
