    Screen will not turn off after 15 minutes.


    Hello.
    Ever since I installed the May 2020 update, my screen will not turn off after 15 minutes like I set it to.
    This is a fresh installation of the OS, I even tried using "sfc /scannow" but no corrupted files were found. I'm not sure if this is an issue everyone is experiencing but any help is appreciated.

    :)

    PC is turning off after 3 minutes, but i have screen saver set for 5 minutes and turn off set for 15 minutes.

    Not sure why it is doing this.

    I tested it 2 times and both times it turns off the screen and keyboard light after about 3 minutes. Odd.

    WHat settings other than Turning Off Pc wait time that would do this? Shouldnt turn off until 15 minutes of inactivity while plugged in. That is the setting. It should kick into screen saver mode after 5 minutes.

    My sleep mode wait time is 1 hour plugged in so that isnt it.

    Despite all these settings set to turn off the screen after 15 minutes my screen turns off after 5 minutes.

    Where else is there to change screen time out settings to have the screen turn off after user desired interval?
