I sense another "tutorial" is coming ... :-)

To answer the questionnaire: I answer the last option to all sections.
Laptop, left open and on for days/weeks on end. Sometimes, when I come
back after a while, the backlight has turned off; I presume the times it
hasn't, something has run that has reset that particular timer.

As to why: partly left over from when startup _wasn't_ that fast (I had
HD until Windows 7, have now SSD on 10), partly - I think - so emails
and news posts come in. Though they come in fast enough anyway, so
probably just lethargy.
