My surface pro 4 is currently losing around 20% charge overnight. This is a widely reported problem and I have tried all of the various suggested fixes - no improvement. 

MICROSOFT - WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO FIX THIS???

    It's been a whole month now and Microsoft have finally me asked for some reports - battery and sleep report. Other than re-installing Windows they haven't made any other suggestions.

    So far, nothing I have tried has made any noticeable difference.

    Not impressed!

    Microsoft have clearly abandoned SP4 owners.

    Such disgusting treatment of their customers.

    Do not buy Microsoft hardware.

    So Microsoft, do you have any other ideas or is that it?

    I'm currently rather disappointed, both with this product and the poor level of customer support being provided.

    Unfortunately disabling -Intel Management Engine Interface Driver" didn't work either. In fact it lead to fast battery drain in a single night it went down from 50 percent to 13% . So seems like there is no solution to it and Microsoft just don't care about Surface 4 Users at all since they want to push their newer products.

    Hi sorry to but in on this but I have been desperately searching for an answer to this problem for months. My Surface Pro 4 suffers the exact symptoms as described in this post. I have tried all the fixes shown from various sites including this one but nothing works. One possible logical assumption is this is something to do with the Intel Management System built in to the firmware releases of late. Are there any answers that will give some hope?
