Network adapter keeps turning off when pc is idle.

I need to find a way to PERMANENTLY disable the network adapter from turning off to save power.

Its this setting here.

Every time I restart the computer it rechecks that box.

I manage an office with about 10 computers and this power saving feature is making the software they use very unstable.
Thank you.

What software?

My question pertains to if you had permissions to change this setting. As admin you do. So the question is what is changing it back or preventing the update to begin with.

Then you mention software that requires admin to run and bells start going off. What software?

Have you tried just setting your power scheme to none?
