    My PC gets woken up by the power button, without pressing the power button...


    My desktop PC randomly wakes from sleep on its own after a few minutes or so. Referring back to this thread, I checked the powercfg log using "powercfg -lastwake" run as admin in powershell. Curiously, this reports back withWake History Count - 1Wake History [0] Wake Source Count - 1 Wake Source [0] Type: Fixed Feature Power Buttondespite the fact that I didn't actually press the power button. I dual-boot with Linux on this PC and this never occurs when I put the system to sleep in Linux.I'm not super familiar with Windows, so I don't know if/how I could dig deeper into ACPI event

    :)

    Power Button - Alternative

    Stop holding the power button long enough to turn it off. A simple press will do.

    Some phones that have a physical Start button can be woken up with that. My Focus has all capacitive buttons and cannot be woken up by pressing Start. The Focus Flash can for example.

    When I press and hold power button

    Hold the power button for 15 seconds or so. When you press the power button for a second or two, it will go into Sleep Mode. Hold it longer and it will shut off.
    Boot into Windows go to Search and type power options and press enter and change what the power button does and change it to Shut Down. How to customize power button action when pressed on Windows 10 | Windows Central
