I'm a bit confused by "Fixed issue where USB PowerShare might keep a device powered when entering Standby." Isn't that what it's supposed to do?

 

Agreed... I'm puzzled too!

 

I'm only guessing, but perhaps it is supposed to work when the system is off, or hibernating, but not when in standby. I don't even have mine yet, so take the above guess for what it's worth.

 

I'm pretty sure that to use USB Powershare, you are supposed to unplug and then reconnect that device if it is installed when you shutdown/standby/hibernate. It is designed to prevent you from accidentally using that feature and draining your battery.
