    Power setting turns display off as set but then it turns right back on

    Verna,

    But you did not look at that tutorial's list of related tutorials for all the other
    Add or Remove ... from Power Options - TenForumsTutorials
    ones. That's what I suggested. The link to that particular tutorial was just a way in to the set of them.

    Do you have allow wake timers set to disabled ?

    But you never put the PC to sleep, so it won`t be that.

    Do you turn the PC off when you`re not using it ?

    Boot into safe mode as Try3 has suggested.

    I would also disconnect your track ball and plug in a normal usb mouse and see if it still comes right back on, if you haven`t tried that yet.

    display won't turn off according to power settings

    Display does not turn off when pc is idle

    Just did all the suggestions. Did not work. Display does not turn off.

    This issue was from the beginning when I downloaded Win 10. I had Win 8.1 and the display always turned off as I set it.

    My pc is HP Pavilion Touchsmart 23 all-in-one. According to "checking for updated drivers on display and monitors", I always get the response that the drivers currently installed are the correct ones.
