Windows 10: PC does NOT STAY in sleep mode

Hi,


I have set my power option for my monitor to turn off after 2 minutes and the computer to sleep after 5 minutes.


For a unknown reason my screen turns off after 2 minutes and turns back on almost immediately after.


Can somebody help me?


Note I run Win10 Pro 20H2.


Thanks

:)

Urgent help with PC that wont stay in sleep mode!


I really need some help. I have a custom built PC. Ever since then I haven't been able to go into sleep mode. As soon as I click Sleep the system powers down for few seconds then powers straight back on to show me login screen. For better insight on the issue I would suggest looking at >this<. The link directs you to Microsoft Community website, and what you will see is my thread asking for help. Knowing Microsoft Community I feel as if they just give basic steps then thinking out of the box so that's why i'm here.

What I've tried so far is doing a reset with Windows 10 Pro to wipe everything but keeps files on SSD which is my primary. I disconnected my HDD which is for gaming and music so that it wont get touched. As I'm typing this the issue hasn't been fixed. The only thing that I did was some updates for OS, and that's it! I'm completely puzzled by what is happening.

Please help! Thanks in advance.
