    Display & computer sleep functions don't work with Windows 10, Build 1607

    This is a desktop PC. After the Anniversary Update for Windows 10 (Build 1607) was downloaded, the sleep timer functions in Power Options, Balanced, no longer work. In Advanced Options, I have the following setttings:

    • Turn off display after 5 minutes,
    • Turn off hard drive after 20 minutes,
    • PC goes to sleep after 30 minutes, and
    • For Multimedia, I have selected "Allow computer to sleep" when sharing media.

    With these settings, the display does not turn off and the desktop does not go into sleep mode. The display turns off, but then immediately comes back on. HELP!!!

    Display goes to sleep

    If all power option settings are set to Never, but your display still goes to sleep or turns off after a period of inactivity, it could be that the screensaver settings are turned on or configured to turn off the display. May we know if you have checked
    the screensaver settings of your computer? If not, here's how to check the screensaver settings in Windows 10:

    • Press the Start button, then type screensaver, then select it from the search results.
    • See if the screensaver is enabled.

    If the issue is not resolved, do not hesitate to post back to us.

    Problem with Windows when the computer goes in to display sleep function.

    My computer does not work with sleep function after latest Windows 10 upgrade.

    Hi Florence,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    From your description, I understand your Sleep function on the PC is not working properly after upgrading to Windows 10 operating system.



    Before assisting further, i would like to ask you few questions:


    • Did you check if the sleep settings are set appropriately?

    • What happens when you perform Sleep function on the PC?


    You may be facing the above issue due to change in the power settings from the
    Control panel page on the PC.



    If you have not fiddled with the power settings, I suggest you to change the
    Power options from Control panel settings by following the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.




    • Press Windows logo key on the keyboard, type
      Power Options and select the top most search result.

    • Select Change when the computer sleeps option from the left side panel of the window.

    • Set the timing from the drop down bar under
      Turn off the display       and Put the computer to sleep options on the window.

    • Click on Save changes.

    • Close the window and check if the changes are effective.
    Hope this helps. Please reply to us with the status of the issue.

    Thanks.
