Restarting Office MS365 Apps Enterprise when Resuming Windows 10 Enterprise from Hibernation
If you're working with Office MS365 Apps Enterprise on a Windows 10 Enterprise machine and you find that the applications sometimes restart when resuming from hibernation, you're not alone. While it may not be a major issue, it can be disruptive and cause a loss of productivity.
Understanding the Issue
When a Windows 10 Enterprise machine hibernates, it saves the current state of the operating system and all open applications to the hard drive. This allows the machine to quickly resume where it left off when it is woken up. However, there are instances where Office MS365 Apps Enterprise may not save its state properly or may have issues loading it back up, causing the applications to restart.
Key Concepts
Hibernation: A power-saving state that saves the current state of the operating system and all open applications to the hard drive, allowing the machine to quickly resume where it left off.
Office MS365 Apps Enterprise: A suite of productivity applications including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook, designed for enterprise use.
Potential Solutions
While there is no guaranteed solution to this issue, there are a few potential steps you can take to mitigate or prevent the problem:
-
Check for Updates: Make sure that both Windows 10 Enterprise and Office MS365 Apps Enterprise are up-to-date. Microsoft frequently releases updates that include bug fixes and performance improvements.
-
Change Power Settings: You can try changing the power settings on your Windows 10 Enterprise machine. Specifically, you can try adjusting the hibernation settings to see if that resolves the issue. To do this, go to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Power Options > Change plan settings > Change advanced power settings. From there, expand the "Sleep" option and adjust the hibernation settings.
-
Repair Office: If the issue persists, you can try repairing Office MS365 Apps Enterprise. This will reinstall the applications without deleting any of your data. To do this, go to Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features. Find Office MS365 Apps Enterprise in the list of programs, right-click on it, and select "Change". From there, select "Quick Repair" and follow the prompts.
-
Reinstall Office: If repairing Office does not resolve the issue, you may need to fully reinstall Office MS365 Apps Enterprise. This will delete all of your data, so be sure to back up any important files first. To do this, go to Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features. Find Office MS365 Apps Enterprise in the list of programs, right-click on it, and select "Uninstall". Then, go to the Microsoft Office website and download the installation files for Office MS365 Apps Enterprise.
