Can't stop Windows going to sleep...

Hi all

I'm running Windows 7 in PD 10.1.2 in Yosemite. As the title says, I can't stop Windows going to sleep, which it does occasionally but not regularly, regardless of whether I'm running anything in Windows at the time. A bit of a pain, as it means I lose network connections on the Windows side and sometimes have to restart to restore them properly.

I have all the sleep settings set to "Never" on the Mac side, the Windows side is set to follow the Mac side and I've confirmed that all Windows settings are showing as "Never". I've also made sure that "Pause Windows when no applications are open" is unchecked in configuration (as suggested in previous posts on this topic).

Any ideas?

Hi Ram
Thanks for the suggestion, but it had made no difference. I appreciate your trying though!
