Windows 10: My monitor keeps turning on after I turn it off

Hello,


Every time I turn off my monitor -- either when I'm leaving for somewhere or I'm heading to bed -- my monitor turns on. After trying multiple things, I've figured out that my keyboard is turning my monitor on, even when I don't touch it!


I've tried multiple procedures, and none of them work. Help would be appreciated.

Monitors keep turning themselves back on

Wow that is really silly... So after all of this troubleshooting, it turns out that my monitors were turning on because me pressing the sleep button on my keyboard was actually waking them back up again.
I'm going to file a ticket on this to microsoft because that's just silly. If I press a button on my keyboard to turn the monitors off, they should stay off until I press another button.

@swarfega You might want to check some of the suggestions that other users have put on this thread and see if any apply to you.

As for me, I'm signing off. Thanks for all your help y'all. Take it easy.

 

Monitor turns on by itself


Thanks. Suggest you do a clean boot and see what happens, then if the monitor still turns on, you have potentially far less logged by Proc Mon.

 

Monitors keep turning themselves back on

Hi guys. I have an issue where my monitors keep turning themselves back on. I've scoured google (or more accurately ddg) and I've found little in the form of a solution.

I hear tale that xbox 360 USB controllers cause monitors to turn back on, and I do plug mine in for development, but the monitors still keep turning on when they are unplugged.

I've run through powershell and some other solutions regarding powercfg and various sub-commands but to no avail.

Can anyone lend a hand please?
Many thanks in advance.
