Windows 10: how to re-enable the actual sleep function on your PC/Laptop. Not the crappy MS one that they can wake up on demand.

Control panel > Hardware and Sound > power options > system settings.
Change settings that are currently unavailable

Disable Sleep Enable Hibernate Save changes.

Optionally: change power button to Hibernate

From power options > Change when the computer Sleeps:

Put the computer to sleep: Never. Click on Change Advanced power plans Go down to and expand sleep.
Change the hibernate after setting.

Then Windows takes five minutes to start and another fifteen to become stable
