Hello,

I have an issue with the nextcloud windows client which prevents Windows to going to sleep mode when the synced folders is on a mounted drive.

I have a synology nas with a SAMBA mount on drive Z:

The clients sync some folders to the Z:

Example :

Steps to reproduce : 1 - Mount a SMB drive on windows, assume Z: for example. 2 - Sync some folders with this drive.

The issue: Windows will not be able to go into sleep mode.

Some additional informations :

The client uses a local sqlite database on each synced folder. These files are always opened. When we check the power requests we see them :

These opened files prevents windows from going into sleep mode.

I've tried to change the power policies in gpedit to allow going sleep with opened network files but it changes nothing :

I've think that it is due to the fact that these sync files have access in WRITE mode everytime and this prevents Windows from going sleep mode :-(.

I don't know what can be done to change that. Purhaps changing the folder of the .sync file to something in AppData or other ?

Thanks a lot from helping

After the configured delay with no mouse/keyboard activity, windows should go into sleep mode
