  2. Windows 10 Upgrade 1903 64 bit Sleep Wakes Up on Multiple Computers

    Someone suggested I look at all the drivers list before and after the upgrade. I did, nothing found/changed in drivers.

    What I did discover was that after the KB4503327 upgrade, if I put the computer to sleep mode (via power menu,) I discovered the computer wakes up after the minutes set in the "turn off screen".
    So, if the screen shutoff were five minutes and I put the computer to sleep, it would wake up after that amount of time, then turn the screens off after another time period of five minutes.

    At this point, I have set the screen turn-off to "never" and any other sleep mode to "never".
    Then, when I put the computer to sleep, it stays asleep.

    This issue was never seen until this OS upgrade was installed in the system.

    My next step is to upgrade the video adapter (something from 2007) to a new and different model adapter to see if that corrects this issue, or not. For now, my work-around is to set "never" in "sleep mode".

    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.

    Blank screen after waking up Computer from Sleep.

    Hi John,

    I am sorry to hear that this issue has been occurring you for a long time. Let us see what to do to resolve this issue.

    For a better clarity on the issue, please answer the following questions;


    • What is the make and model of the Computer?

    • What is the build version of your Windows? To check the build version, follow the below steps;

    • Open up the Run command
      with the Win key + R key combo.

    • Type in winver into the run command text box and hit
      OK.

    • You should now see a dialog screen revealing the OS build and registration information.

    • How are you trying to wake up the Computer from Sleep?


    This issue might have occurred due to; The Keyboard item in Control Panel is not configured to wake the computer when you press a key on the keyboard: or your computer may have encountered a system problem: or the Sleep
    key on your keyboard is configured incorrectly.

    Let us check your Settings on Sleep option. Refer to the below article and check all the settings are correct.

    Shut down, sleep, or hibernate your PC



    If all the Settings are correct, try the below method and check if the issue can be resolved.

    Method 1: Update display drivers.

    I suggest you to update your display adapter drivers and check if the issue is resolved. Follow the below instructions to update your drivers:

    • Select the Start button, type
      Device Manager,
      then select it from the list of results.
    • Expand the display adapter driver, then right-click (or tap and hold) it, and select
      Update Driver Software.
    • Select Search automatically for updated driver software.
    • If Windows doesn’t find a new driver, you can try looking for one on the device manufacturer’s website and follow their instructions.


    If the issue still persist, please try the method 2.

    Method 2: Power troubleshooter.

    I would suggest you to run the power troubleshooter
    and check if the issue can be resolved.

    Power troubleshooter helps to fix any issue with the power settings of the computer.
