    Computer doesn't go to sleep


    Greetings,


    My computer is no longer going to sleep by itself. I can force it to sleep by clicking Start > Power > Sleep, but I would like to find why sleep mode is no longer working and fix it.


    I ran System File Checker. It said "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them. For online repairs, details are included in the CBS log file located at windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For offline repairs, details are included in the log file provided by the /OFFLOGFILE flag."


    I ran Power Troubleshooter and it found two "problems": Display brightness setting was too high and Screen saver was enabled. These were "fixed".


    I tried refreshing the hiberfil.sys file by setting powercfg /Hibernate to off, rebooting, then turning back on.


    I created the energy report, battery report, and sleepstudy report.


    Fast startup is disabled.


    I thought maybe there might be an application preventing sleep. When I run powercfg /requests it says:


    SYSTEM:

    [PROCESS] \Device\HarddiskVolume3\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmpnetwk.exe

    Media Sharing has been enabled through Windows Media Player


    What else can I try?


    Thanks,

    Shane.

    :)

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:

    Does it mean my HDD is useless?

    Lumia 620 doesn`t connect to computer via usb cable

    Hi yall and thanks for the replies!



    Unfortunately, the were of no help.



    The phone isn`t listed in device manager, the list of devices doesn`t change if I have my phone connected to my computer(s). There are no mystery devices, no yellow triangle -markings or anything even remotely pointing to the direction the phone being connected.

    It could be that my phone has a broken usb port, but it makes me wonder that it still charges the battery when connected to a computer.



    This is not a big problem for me, that I must admit, but still, it kinda bugs me that the phone doesn`t work the way it`s supposed to work,



    Anyways, if somebody comes up with something that might help, I am most grateful.



    Have a great weekend yall!

    edit: Also, I have my laptop almost always connected to charger. Tried without charger just for the heck of it, didn`t help.
