piece the puzzle from here
head over to Device Manager, find your ethernet port, hit Properties, and then uncheck Wake-On-LAN. if you really want WOL to still be active, be sure to check the “magic packet only” checkbox.
i’m still not sure why windows 10 just had this by default. so stupid.
honestly it's so upsetting because there is no way for me to uncheck wake on lan on windows 11 [my cousin who built my computer built it with windows 11 and i didn't have any way to downgrade so I'm stuck with it forever] like if there is i haven't found it but i've been fighting with it for MONTHS.. that entire thing is just grayed out...
there used to be a utility that would tap into the front end code of a windows app and could force enable controls
while it seems like this would not work, usually the back end code was still connected to the control even when disabled
it let me overcome various amusing issues over the years
