Title: Is it safe to put "Windows Live" on sleep mode ?
Post by: Mnemonic on January 20, 2018, 07:01:05 PM

As the title says, I'm wondering if it is ok to put "Windows Live" to sleep to speed up the computer as it is listed among the culprits that slow my PC down. But then, I thought maybe it has to run on the background to retrieve account info and stuff.

I just want to make sure that it doesn't have any hazardous effects once I put it to sleep mode.

Hi,

you can also just give a try by putting it to sleep and test whether everything you need works as expected and if not you can simply wake it back and then ignore it to keep it running on the background.

Regards.
