Windows 10: My windows 10 pc wakes up on it own immediately after putting it to sleep

My windows 10 pc wakes up on it own immediately after putting it to sleep. I have done all the settings but it is still waking up immediately on its own. I've unchecked network adapter power management. Please, help me out. I want my pc to always remain in sleep mode until I wake it up.

Computer wakes from sleep immediately after putting to sleep

The problem i have is when i select to put my PC into sleep mode (Start>Power icon>Sleep). The screen goes black as if its entering sleep mode, but then almost immediately 'wakes up' and my video cam starts looking for a face to scan.

I'm "assuming" this is related to Windows Hello.

Any suggestions?

If i say sleep, i want the pc to sleep!

-Thanks

Win 10 Wakes Immediately Upon Sleep

Out of the blue my wireless mouse disconnected a few days ago (fully charged...). It was intermittently very bad for a couple of days. Since then it's been better & last couple of days it's only faltered once or twice.

Also since then when sleeping it wakes immediately. Cmd suggests it's the USB 3? But there is nothing in the USB port & it's been working ok last couple of days... The mouse is not connected to a usb 3.0 port, more so a USB 2.0 port but have taken all USB's out completely so it can't be USB.

Tried already this well written article [URL="https://thegeekpage.com/fix-computer-automatically-waking-up-from-sleep-in-windows-10/[/URL] amongst another several step article:

• Device Manager - deleted all USB devices & rebooted
• Device Manager - checked if update is required to USB drivers; does not appear so
• Device Manager - set all mice Power Management > not to wake up computer
• Disabled wake timers in Power Options. Despite this it allows the clicking of the mouse to wake (when the machine does actually go to sleep). I cannot say every time as more often than not the machine will not sleep but I mention to be thorough.
• Wireless adapter does not have wake timers enabled
• Deleting all usb ports in device manager & restarting.
• Power plan > no dodgy settings. Thought it might be setting "On Battery" never put to sleep but that's not the case.
• Device Manager Network Adapter - no wake settings
• Event viewer shows USB 3.0 causing it (2 pics)Attachment 388361
• Event Scheduler loaded fine at first. Then following the article after installing PSTools I get a warning pic attachedAttachment 388362
• Event Scheduler Reboot_AC & Reboot_Battery are disabled
• Task Scheduler Library -> Microsoft -> Windows -> UpdateOrchestrator is missing; there is no updateOrchestrator as in fix-6 of the article. I'll take this with a pinch of salt as the article is not 100% with my machine, I'm not getting a prompt when loading cmd to allow access to UAC... so I'll take it with a pinch of salt
• sc config “UsoSvc” start= disabled
• Regedit > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon > PowerdownAfterShutdown = 0.
• Windows Update is latest settings

 

Computer wakes from sleep immediately after putting to sleep

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand that the computer wakes up immediately after putting to sleep.

There could be several reasons for the computer not going to sleep mode. To determine which device is causing this, we can run a simple command and check the reason why the computer woke up from sleep mode. To do this refer the steps mentioned below:

1. Type command prompt in the
   search bar on the Taskbar.
   
2. Right click on the command prompt icon and select
   Run as administrator.
   
3. Now, paste the following command and hit Enter:
   powercfg lastwake.
   
4. Share the results of the command.
   

The above command should let us know the device that is preventing the computer going into sleep mode.

Let us know the results and we will help you further.

Regards,

Nikhar Khare
