Windows 10: Is it fine if my pc goes into sleep when it's preparing for reset?

I have a windows 11 pc and it had a setting of going to sleep after 15 minutes of inactivity. I was resetting my computer and suddenly it went into sleep mode and i turned it back on and it was showing preparing to restart. After then the resetting started with the logo of my laptop brand. Everything looked quite normal to me but i still have doubts about it. It would be really helpful if someone clear it.

PC goes into sleep mode

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.
I completely understand your concern and feel sorry for the inconvenience this has caused.

Before we proceed, I need more information to help you better:

• What is your present user account profile type? (Microsoft account or local account)

I suggest you to sign out from the current user account, restart the PC and login to the either administrator account or the Microsoft account to check, if that helps.

This issue may occur, due to some corruption or incorrect settings in your computer power settings.

As per your post, you say "but have set the "Turn off the display" to 30 minutes and the "Put the computer to sleep" to 30 minutes.", let's ensure to set these 2 settings to "never" to check, if that helps.

Also, I suggest you to follow these methods below, to fix your issue:

Method 1:

Power troubleshooter:

You can run the Power troubleshooter to adjust your computer's power settings. The Power troubleshooter checks things like your computer's timeout settings, which determine how long the computer waits before turning off the monitor display or entering sleep
mode. Adjusting these settings can help you conserve power and extend your computer's battery life.

1. Type troubleshooter in the search box and then press Enter.

2. Select Troubleshooting. Click on view all and select Power.

3. Click next and follow the on-screen instructions.

If the issue still persists, follow the method 2.

Method 2:

If the issue persists, I suggest you to
restore the power plans to default and check if it helps.

Step 1: Reset and restore the power plans to default:

• Right-click on Start button
  and click on Command Prompt (Admin).
• In the command prompt, type powercfg –restoredefaultschemes
  and hit Enter.
• Exit command prompt.

Disclaimer: This would reset the power plan settings to default. Any customized power plans are would be removed.

Step 2:Once the power plan is reset to default, you may create a
new power plan and customize the same according to your needs.
