My Windows 8.1 has the setting "Turn on automatic setup of network connected devices":
What exactly does this setting mean? Why would I want it?
I have been unable to find any useful information googling this.
The background to the question is that my Windows 8.1 machine has difficulty falling asleep, and powercfg -requests
don't work like it used to, so I'm left guessing what is keeping it awake. "Network discovery" seems a possible culprit, but it is a nice to have it turned on. Perhaps turning off just automatic setup would help, but it would be good to know what it does.
