Parameters

state

A System.Windows.Forms.PowerState indicating the power activity mode to which to transition.

force

true to force the suspended mode immediately; false to cause Windows to send a suspend request to every application.

disableWakeEvent

true to disable restoring the system's power status to active on a wake event, false to enable restoring the system's power status to active on a wake event.

Returns

true if the system is being suspended, otherwise, false.

Remarks

If an application does not respond to a suspend request within 20 seconds, Windows determines that it is in a non-responsive state, and that the application can either be put to sleep or terminated. Once an application responds to a suspend request, however, it can take whatever time it needs to clean up resources and shut down active processes.
