Windows 10: powercfg -requestsoverride errors

A Realtek driver is preventing my PC from going to sleep.

I am executing powercfg -requestsoverride


on this driver:


Realtek High Definition Audio (HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0662&SUBSYS_10280622&REV_1003\4&233ad700&0&0201)

I get this error:

The ampersand (&) character is not allowed. The & operator is reserved for future use; wrap an ampersand in double
quotation marks ("&") to pass it as part of a string.


Even with all the &s double quoted I get the same message.

Any ideas why?


What should be proper syntax?


Thanks

Win 10 POWERCFG -requestsoverride does not work

My windows 10 Home Premium prematurely wakes up from sleep and this is what I see



C:\WINDOWS\system32>POWERCFG -REQUESTS

DISPLAY:

None.



SYSTEM:

[DRIVER] \FileSystem\srvnet

An active remote client has recently sent requests to this machine

I added the following requests, neither of which prevent the pc from waking up with the same message as above

POWERCFG -requestsoverride DRIVER \FileSystem\srvnet SYSTEM

POWERCFG -requestsoverride DRIVER srvnet SYSTEM

btw, this machine was updated from windows 7, where this command

POWERCFG -requestsoverride DRIVER \FileSystem\srvnet SYSTEM

prevented the machine from prematurely waking up

some other details; however, I do not think they are pertinent to the above bug:

How to add valid powercfg /requestsoverride to handle these DRIVERs and allow computer to sleep?

This is FRESHLY installed Windows 10, and I've run sfc /scannow, powercfg /restoredefaultschemes, Power Troubleshooter, ensured latest drivers on everything, etc. without any effect or help.
