    Is there a way to see what's keeping my laptop from going to sleep mode?


    I'm getting pissed off myself, I went for a trip with friends and I come back to my laptop's screen being black, but my keyboard LED being on, and my mouse. I had given my power settings instructions to sleep after 10 minutes, but they didn't? I have a suspection it's malwarebytes

    Laptop not going to sleep mode

    Hi Hrishav,

    We want to learn more about your concern. Help us verify the following:

    • Does it happen right after the clean installation? If not, what changes were made to your system that might have cause the issue?
    • When did you do the clean installation?
    • Did you reset from factory defaults, or used an installation media or bootable USB?

    If you haven't installed a lot of apps yet, you may try to do a reset that lets you keep your personal files. In
    Settings, go to Update & security > Recovery
    > Reset this PC. Select Keep my files. Otherwise, you may try to manual change your sleep settings, follow this

    thread     for reference. It's a bit old but the steps are the same.

    We look forward to your response.

    ASUS Laptop Won't Wake from Sleep Mode

    OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
    Version 10.0.18363 Build 18363
    System Manufacturer ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
    System Model UX490UAR
    System Type x64-based PC
    SMBIOS Version 3.0

    Problem: about 80% of the time, my laptop won't wake up from sleep mode via keyboard press or mouse move/click. I seem to be missing many common features in power plan too, even after fresh Windows 10 install.

    Troubleshooting Steps:

    1. Reinstalled Windows 10 (clean)
    2. Updated all drivers
    3. Replicated on multiple Windows 10 versions, updates
    4. BIOS latest version
    5. No USB devices attached, ever. Only USB-C power and bluetooth mouse
    6. Disabled "fast startup" in control panel
