Windows 10: Installed new update for Windows 10, the version 2004 update. Now fan stays on while in...

After leaving the computer running to install the new update I came home to hear the fan on and going faster than usual with the PC in Sleep mode.


Because I had gone out for a few hours the PC had completed the update and gone to "Sleep" after the allocated 30 minutes. Not normally an issue.


Usually I hit the Spacebar and it wakes up but this time nothing would wake it from it's slumber and I had to hold the Power button on for 5 or so seconds until it finally shut off.

Hit Power button again and after the normal booting sequence it came up with a screen to tell me about the new preferences to choose from and after clicking Nextor whatever the PC started up as normal.


A web page then popped up to tell me all the new features available with the update so I closed it off, after a quick read of some features, and left the computer idling for 30 minutes to check the Sleep mode fan issue.


It went to Sleep and the fan turned on and was again going faster than normal and I had to shut it down by holding the Power button as before.


This has only started today after the update for Windows 10 version 2004.

Have tried a few suggestions from the community about running the troubleshooter but there isn't anything found to be a problem.

Power and Sleep settings look okay.

Fan very rarely comes on even in hot weather.


Any ideas on how to solve this problem would be appreciated.

New install Windows 10 (issue solved)

It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

Heres a couple examples:

It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP
