Hi all,

Using windows 10, creators edition, 1709, and jaws 18.

Well, now that I've got the computer to be able to come out of sleep 
mode without making me sign in, (and I'm thrilled about that), now, it 
will *NOT* stay asleep! When I pulled out my thumb drive, it woke up.

Then, when I put it back to sleep, it came on by itself, I did nothing 
to turn it on.

I did find a heck of a great article though, about unchecking things 
that can wake up your computer.

My computer guy, Rick, told me he had this problem, but that was about 2 
years ago.

Here's the link to the article if anyone wants to read it.

He does give a caution in here, saying, "warning, if you turn everything 
off from waking up your computer out of sleep mode, you will no longer 
be able to wake up your computer at all, using any device in device 
manager."

I'm a bit afraid, I of course, want to be able to use my keyboard to 
wake it up, so I would never uncheck the keyboard from waking it up, but 
in device manager, there are all kinds of things there, jaws, all kinds 
of USB hubs, printer things, network things of all kinds, and even more 
things I cannot remember now.

So, anyway, that link for the article is
