Windows 10: Goes out of sleep mode

Dear forum

Does any one else use the sleep mode function? When using mine, well then it works, also when starting it up again.

My problem is that if i want to go to bed, and put sleep mode on, then it turns on by it self after a while. Yesterday evening it did it after aprox 30 mins. Dont know the exact time, since i was in my bed, but suddently my computer turned on.

And no my house is not haunted.. I already tried with EMF

:)

 

Windows 10 Build 1703 update From bad to worse

After a few days, I found out an additional problem:

The Laptop does to go into sleep mode after as configured in the power options.

When I try to go into sleep mode manually, it goes into safe mode and right away goes out of it.

 

Sleep mode and computer turns back on

With the latest update, sometimes when I put the computer to sleep, it goes into sleep mode but in very short time, just seconds, turns itself back on out of sleep mode

 

Here we go, control panel/power options then change plan settings of your power plan, then change advanced power settings.
Copy these settings except the "sleep after"




Then go control panel/ device manager . Right click network adapter/ properties . In power management untick " allow this device to wake computer"

 

Open cmd.exe as admin and do the following:


powercfg -devicequery wake_armed


and


powercfg /waketimers

First shows devices like mice or keyboard registered allowed to wake the pc up, see post above to disable them, 2nd shows registered time events, if there are any you need to disable them (disallow them to activate pc out of standby), for example the windows maintain service.

Also if you have WOL activated you need to set extra option to "only via magic packets".

 

Thank you for that @mkdr. I did not think to check /waketimers because I have disabled Allow wake timers in Power options.
That fixed it because I had a waketimer from Teamviewer.
So I guess this is the bug Microsoft needs to fix - even though Allow wake timers are set to disabled in Power options they wake up the pc.

 

Hey mine looks like this :
C:\Windows\system32>powercfg -devicequery wake_armed
HID Keyboard Device
Intel(R) Ethernet Connection (2) I218-V
HID-compliant mouse
HID Keyboard Device (002)
HID-compliant mouse (002)




C:\Windows\system32>powercfg /waketimers
Timer set by [SERVICE] \Device\HarddiskVolume4\Program Files (x86)\TeamViewer\TeamViewer_Service.exe (TeamViewer) expires at 00:36:38 on 05-08-2015.
Reason: generic

So its seems its also teamviewer for me.. How do i then disable this service? I mean without having to uninstall Teamviewer?

 

I found this guide which doesnt work..
How To Prevent Your Computer From Waking Up Accidentally
Unfortunately.. Because i have disabled the Allow wake timers

 

It is the teamviewer service. If you disable it will be good.
The bug is that this setting doesn't work. Even if the setting is wake timers disabled it still wakes up.
To disable the service you can go to Services, find it and choose Startup type either Manual or Disabled.

 

Type in search "services" open it, browse to TeamViewer service, options, set it to disabled, and click the stop button. The annoying service is even running when you have TeamViewer set to not to start with windows, and dont want an auto remote. Also you should deactivate your lan/wifi card "Intel(R) Ethernet Connection (2) I218-V" if you dont need wake on lan, see the pictures above. And if you dont need keyboard/mice wakeup deactivate them too... powercfg -devicequery wake_armed and waketimers should both report "none" then.

 

Well that's the thing I did.. I did stop the service and set it to manual.

Thing is that then Teamviewer doesn't start in the taskbar. Meaning if I startup my pc with a wake on lan I wont be able to remote it. Which I would like!

So is there a way to "kill" the service, with TV still starting up so I can remote my pc??

 

No. Use a VNC instead.

 

I got this one for wake timers and I have it disabled in my power options.

C:\Windows\system32>powercfg /waketimers
Timer set by [SERVICE] \Device\HarddiskVolume2\Windows\System32\svchost.exe (SystemEventsBroker) expires at 1:40:51 AM on 12/08/2015.
Reason: Windows will execute 'NT TASK\Microsoft\Windows\UpdateOrchestrator\Reboot' scheduled task that requested waking the computer.

When I look at event viewer to see what possibly woke it up as I wasn't present. The first thing since putting it to sleep was the following.

The system time has changed to ‎2015‎-‎08‎-‎11T10:40:40.500000000Z from ‎2015‎-‎08‎-‎11T07:54:15.544080200Z.


Change Reason: System time synchronized with the hardware clock.

Not sure if that is what woke it up but it's what is showing up.

Also below is what I have for devices able to wake it up.

C:\Windows\system32>powercfg -devicequery wake_armed
Razer BlackWidow Ultimate (001)

 

Is your pc time not set correctly? wrong time zone? bios battery empty? didnt restart after windows update? rtc alarms set in bios?

 

I checked my clock in the bios and it was running, that was a old bug with Asus motherboard from applying saved bios settings.

If the battery was empty how could it know the time was wrong it was a sleep right?
