Windows 10: About Windows being unable to enter sleep mode but just shutting the screen, event id 59...

Recently I got this problem, but unable to find a fix here, despite similar question has been asked before:https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/windows-10-desktop-computer-wont-sleep-it-only/5f56ff57-9dc4-4489-ae84-b6db9f075547The symptom was the same, event id 59 instead of event id 42.However I got the solution somewhere else https://www.zhihu.com/question/264893048. It was caused by a VPN software, called UUGameBooster https://uu.163.com/global/, which in its default setting activates an entry called "Keep connecting the Internet after slept computer".

Windows 8.1 does not enter Sleep mode

Since a few weeks my computer incorrectly enters Sleep mode from Start->Power menu.

A few weeks ago, in Sleep mode:

1. The power led was blinking
2. Monitor went black
3. After moving mouse monitor turned on and I needed to enter Windows password

Now in Sleep mode:

1. The power led is on all the time
2. Monitor goes black
3. After moving mouse I am back in Windows, not prompted for password

This is a fragment from my motherboard manual:

PLED (System Power LED):
Connect to the power status indicator on the chassis front panel. The LED is on when the system is operating. The LED keeps blinking when the system is in S3 sleep state. The LED is off when the system is in S4 sleep state or powered off (S5).

This means that after pressing Sleep, Windows is not entering S3 sleep state (as it used before), because the led is not blinking.

This problem is not influenced by choosing (in Advanced Power Options) to allow
hybrid mode on or off nor by choosing to allow wake timers on or off. I tested all combinations and it's still not entering Sleep.

If after two hours of doing nothing on the computer I choose the Sleep mode and then after a minute move the mouse, then in the Event Viewer, in the summary of administrative events there is only one event in the "Last hour" column:
Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power with eventID 59 and it says that computer entered away mode.

In my Bios there are some settings which may influence the power behavior. They didn't change since long time and I think they are ok:





Is there any way to help figure out why the computer doesn't enter S3 mode anymore? And how to fix it?

 

Windows 10 PC shuts down when entering sleep mode

When I manually enter sleep mode or after an hour of no activity my PC attempts to enter sleep mode but is unsuccessful. It just shuts completely down. Upon reboot if i look at event viewer i have this

Windows failed to resume from hibernate with error status 0xC0000001.

Any ideas?

 

Windows 10 Desktop computer wont sleep, it only shuts off the screen like a tablet. Help.

Nope, its still doing it, but I discovered a bit of information that's very important and confirms my suspicions.

In the Event viewer, when this issue occurs, my attempts to sleep my computer show up as "The system is entering Away Mode." (Event ID: 59) instead of "The system is entering sleep." (Event ID: 42).

Whats causing it to chose "Away mode" is beyond me.

Hopefully this helps diagnose the problem.

Also, I discovered that I can force it to sleep via the command "rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState 0,1,0" via the command prompt.

Its seems that the function of the sleep button, both on the keyboard and in the start menu, is changed to "away" mode instead of "sleep" mode.
