    Windows 10 does not go to sleep.


    I notice that when I get up in the morning my desktop is not in it's usual sleep mode. The power settings says that the monitor should go to sleep after 10 minutes and the computer after 30 minutes of inactivity.


    This started happening just after the last large Windows Update on 10/13 and 10/14/20.


    Any solution to this?

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Windows 10 does not go to sleep.

    Windows 10 wont stay in sleep mode

    yes, it was already off.

    its waking up one hour after it sleeps for about 2 minutes, then sleeping again. How the eff can i track what it does in that time if nothing shows in powerCFG or the event log?

    Why does my computer say no display and has to restart when booting from sleep?: I have had this problem for a while. Occasionally, when my computer boots from sleep, it will say, "No display," and I will have to restart.
