Windows 10: [1809] Right after going to sleep, pc doesn't stand-by but screen stays black

This problem arose as soon as the major upgrade from 1803 to 1809 was installed.

I put in stand-by (sleep) the PC but it turns back on right away. However, the screen does not, and keyboard and mouse seems not working (not so much I could do anyway). I am forced to hard switch off or shutdown every time.

My hope is that the issue may involve other people, and to find a workaround.


EDIT: I realized that the PC doesn't enter stand-by mode at all (perhaps, it does but it's just for a moment);

for sure it is able to turn screen off

Windows Sleep/Stand By Issues

Hi Joythar K, I did the steps you provided with no help. And no issues where found in the power troubleshooter. When my pc goes into stand by/sleep
mode and I go to wake it up the screen stays black. I have to hold the power button down to turn off my computer and turn it back on to get it to go back to my desktop. The issue only happens when my computer goes to stand by/sleep mode. This issue started
after the last windows 10 update. -Shawn

 

Laptop Screen Stays Black after Sleep Mode

Hi Danielle,

Improper power plan settings or a possible fault on the display driver after the recent update can cause your screen to stay black when waking from sleep mode. As an initial step to prevent this from happening, we suggest that you restore the power plan
settings to default. To do this, follow these steps:

• Type Command Prompt in the search box. From the search result, right-click on
  Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.
• Copy and paste or type in the command below:
  
  powercfg -restoredefaultschemes
• Press Enter and wait for the command to finish.
  
  Note: This option will delete all custom power plans and restore the built in power plan settings of your device.

In the event that you encounter the same issue after restoring the power plan settings, ensure that your device display driver is updated. You can follow the steps provided on this

link on how to update your drivers and check if the issue persists.

We'll appreciate if you can send us an update.
