  3. PC does not go to Sleep Mode in Windows 10

    After posting my question did some search and found the solution in the following link:

    http://www.technipages.com/windows-10-pc-wont-go-to-sleep-mode.
    The link has a tutorial on how to set the Sleep Mode function in Power Options and it works on my PC. I selected 'Allow the Computer to Sleep' in the multimedia settings of the Power Options
    and rebooted the computer. The PC goes to sleep after the time selected in the Power Options. This may work on other PCs as well.

    PC wont sleep

    Right click the Taskbar, start the Task Manager. click the More Options link and go thru the list and find audio stream whatever program that is, and End the Task, same for the Realtek Audio driver before shutting down.
