    Computer wakes up during the night


    I have a problem in connection with Windows Update. An event called Universal Orchestrator Start wakes up my laptop during the night. I tried to edit it in the event scheduler, but it is asking for username and password I dont know. I would like to find out what my password and username are, the question is how can i find it, because my Microsoft profile credentials are incorrect.

    :)

    Windows 10 wakes my computer at night

    I hibernated my computer. It woke up at night. It happened before. I checked and I suspect Windows Update is causing the problem. Windows 10 does not seem to allow me to change the update time, so it wakes up and update at night. How do I set the update
    time as to avoid night time?

    Below is the display in the command prompt:

    C:\WINDOWS\system32>powercfg -lastwake

    Wake History Count - 1

    Wake History [0]

    Wake Source Count - 0

    C:\WINDOWS\system32>powercfg -devicequery wake_armed

    HID Keyboard Device

    C:\WINDOWS\system32>powercfg -waketimers

    Timer set by [SERVICE] \Device\HarddiskVolume1\Windows\System32\svchost.exe (SystemEventsBroker) expires at 13:51:14 on 15/07/2016.

    Reason: Windows will execute 'Maintenance Activator' scheduled task that requested waking the computer.

  3. waking up my computer

    Hi Virginia,

    For us to properly isolate the issue in waking up your computer, we would like to know the following:

    • What is the make and model of your computer?
    • Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?
    • Aside from a hard shut down, to make sure that we have not missed on anything, what other troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you check if the wake on keyboard option is enabled. To check this, open
    Device Manager > Keyboards > HID Keyboard Device >
    Power Management, and then disable the Allow this device to wake the computer feature (standard value).

    We would appreciate it if you could get back to us and provide us your feedback.

    Computer wakes up during the night

    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.
