Windows 10: Power Option failure

Windows 10 Professional x64 Version 2004 build 19041.508
Install Language: English United States
System Locale: English United States
Installed: 10/11/2020 3:00:20 PM
Servicing Branch: Current Branch CB
Boot Mode: UEFI with Secure Boot disabled

I opened the Control Panel, picked System and Security, Power Options, at “Balanced recommended picked ‘Change plan settings’”, under Edit Plan Settings set Turn off the display: to ‘1 minute’ and Put the computer to sleep: to ’30 minutes’ and picked ‘Save changes’. Exited the Control Panel.

The display shut down in 1 minute of “no use” but it came back up in 10 to 20 seconds!!! Why? I tried 10 minutes and it never shut down.
