  2. Windows 10 Falls Asleep Despite "Never" Sleep Settings

    Hi Tarantino,

    Regarding your concern, it is most likely to be caused by a scheduled task. We suggest that you check your
    Task Scheduler for unwanted scheduled tasks. Kindly do the following steps below before 10PM:

    • Type task scheduler on the search bar.
    • Click on Task Scheduler.
    • Under Actions, click on Display All Running Tasks.
    • Once All Running Tasks pops up, kindly check for a scheduled sleep that is set to trigger every 10PM.
    • Select the scheduled sleep, then press End Task.

    Once you're done with the steps above, kindly check if your computer will still go to sleep at 10PM.

    Let us know if you need further assistance with your concern.
