Windows 10: Powercfg -devicequery wake_armed Won't run

Hello,


I'm trying to figure out what is waking my computer up from sleep as it won't stay in sleep mode for more than 5 minutes at the moment which is incredibly frustrating.

When I try to run "Powercfg -devicequery wake_armed" the prompt screen will open up for half a second and then close.

Does anyone know what is preventing it from running properly?

I can't seem to find anyone else that has had this problem.


Thank you!

:)

 

Powercfg -devicequery wake_armed what to untag in the device manager?

Many thanks indeed!

I have disabled all the items successfully.

Did not manage to disable the Internet Cards, they remained listed when running Powercfg -devicequery wake_armed
Until I disabled hibernate.
After that they were not listed anymore.

There was a specific reason for disabling all this, but that is a long story.

Thanks again!

 

Windows 10 won't stay asleep? Powercfg -devicequery wake_armed/Powercfg -devicedisablewake "devicename"

I have been checking to windows 10 not staying asleep. I go to power and sleep sometimes after about 15 seconds or so it comes back out of sleep. I found this (below) and when I check it shows mouse and keyboard. Will it affect the system when I want it
to come out of sleep and I move my mouse or touch a key? Figured I would ask first. Kind of concerned if I disable it that it may not come out of sleep mode? Thanks Bruce

If the issue still occurs, I would suggest you to check if there is any devices that is preventing the computer to go to sleep mode. Follow the steps:

a) Type cmd on the Start screen and right click on it. Select Run as administrator.

b) Type the following command and hit Enter:

Powercfg -devicequery wake_armed

c) You will get the name/names of the devices. To disable a specific device from waking the computer, run the following command:

Powercfg -devicedisablewake "devicename"

Note: Make sure that you replace the “devicename”placeholder with the name of the device that you want to disable.

d) If this issue still occurs after you disable one device, disable the devices in this list one by one until you determine which device is causing the issue. If you want to re-enable a device to wake the computer,
run the following command:

Powercfg -deviceenablewake "devicename" command.

 

Powercfg -devicequery wake_armed what to untag in the device manager?

Powercfg -devicequery wake_armed shows me following devices.






Probably... (I am not 100% sure) they may be the cause of my system not properly shutting down, but going to sleep instead.

In the Device Manager, right click the respective item, properties, tab [Power Management] should I then untag both

- Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power- Allow this device to wake the computer


Any drawbacks?


Thanks.
