Describe the feature or improvement

Windows 11's "Modern Standby" also known as S0 sleep, is a massive battery hog as the machine is still fully running. You can read numerous complaints about it in forums by simply searching for the term.

Disabling networking in standby is at least one way to help reduce the power drain and heat generation - as Windows Update is usually run while the machine is "sleeping" and will completely drain your battery or melt the lining of your laptop bag.

This guide provides helpful steps to disable it, which can be done via the registry: https://www.elevenforum.com/t/enable-or-disable-network-connectivity-in-modern-standby-in-windows-11.3286/
