Windows 10: After I wake my computer from Sleep on Windows 11, the Calculator automatically opens on...

I just upgraded from Windows 10, and this situation never happened there. I tried both Repair and Reset on the app, but the app still opens when the computer wakens.

Computer wakes from sleep automatically every night

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I appreciate your effort on this and thank you for providing the all information. I understand that the PC wakes up automatically when you put the computer to sleep mode.



As per the description it could be that the task is set to wake up the computer when it gets triggered, we can change the settings from Task Scheduler and see if that resolves it.



Please follow the steps mentioned below:

1. Press Windows key + R, to open
   Run dialog box.
   
2. Type taskschd.msc and click on
   OK.
   
3. Now, expand Task Scheduler Library and navigate to
   Microsoft\Windows\UpdateOrchestrator
   
4. On the right pane double click on Universal Orchestrator Start and click
   Conditions tab.
   
5. Clear the checkbox for Wake the computer to run this task.
   
6. Click on OK.
   

This should not wake the computer automatically after you put the computer to sleep.



Let us know the results, we will certainly help you further.

computer wake-up after sleep

Hi Bill,

There's a possibility that the settings that enables your Space bar to wake your computer up from sleep was reset after updating Windows. If this what had happened, we suggest that you just re-set it up. See the steps below on how to do
so:

• Press Windows key and type keyboard in.
• Click on Keyboard option and a pop-up windows should show up.
• From there, go to > Hardware tab > Properties >
  Change settings > Power management > Allow this device to wake the computer >
  OK/Apply.

Try the if the steps did work and let us know any updates.

 

wake from sleep issue in windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for posting your reply. Apologize for the delay in response.

I suggest you to check which devices are configured to wake up the computer from sleep by following the steps below:

• Right click on Start icon and select Command Prompt (Admin).
• Type the command line below:

Powercfg /devicequery wake_armed

3. Check if the devices (Keyboard, Mouse, Ethernet cable) are listed.

If the system is not going to sleep and going to Hybernate, the only option to wake up is to press the Power button.

Hope the information is helpful.
