Windows 10: PC Wakes from sleep immediately and It will not go to sleep at all

Whenever I put my pc to sleep It immediately wakes back up right after it ticks off. I am at a loss of what I can do for this issue, https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/my-computer-wakes-itself-up-from-sleep-mode/0c7209b0-5588-4cc1-acfa-54700429f3fcv I reviewed this forum and Here are my results, I was unable to make much of it.

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

 

Windows 10 - Wakes immediately from sleep.

Hello t4ord,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

Sleep mode saves the state of all open applications to memory, then powers down both the display panel and hard disk drive. However, if it often wakes up from Sleep mode, you need to change the Sleep settings under Power &
sleep. You can also refer this link regarding shutdown, sleep,
or hibernate your PC.

If that doesn’t help, kindly check with the steps listed below and see if it works.

Method 1: Restore default settings of power plan.

Let’s restore the power settings to its default and check if it makes any difference. To do that,

• Go to Control Panel and select Power Options.
  
• Click on Change advanced power settings.
• Select the option Restore default settings for this plan.
  

Method 2: I suggest you to refer the troubleshooting steps mentioned in the following article and see if it helps.

• Windows
  10: Troubleshooting sleep/hibernation issues on your Dell PC.
  
• Windows 7 does not go to sleep
  (Holds good for Windows 10 as well)
  

Let us know the results. Will be glad to assist you further, if the issue persists.

Regards,

Mala S
