  1. Random nightly wake-ups, even after doing the "usual" fixes.


    Every night I turn my computer off using the shut down function, and most mornings I wake up to find it is on. I have tried to fix this by finding out what programs are turning it on in command prompt. When I type,

    powercfg -lastwake

    I get:

    Wake History Count - 1
    Wake History [0]
    Wake Source Count - 0

    Also:

    powercfg -devicequery wake_armed

    returns:

    NONE

    Which is concerning to me. I have gone to various settings and disabled "Allow to wake" checkboxes for my mouse, keyboard, network controller, and everything else I can think of. I even looked through most of the Task Scheduler tasks and found that none of them were allowed to wake the computer. I am at a lost as to how this is still happening...

    Help is appreciated.

    :)

  2. Lumia " The Future is Here "

    This is a support forum, not a complaints department.

    I suggest you directly submit your complaints about hardware to Nokia and software to Microsoft.



    Also it often helps to read reviews when switching platforms to make sure it suits your needs. From what you've said the Lumia 820 clearly doesn't suit you.

    What RSXforever wrote was a kind of review, that can help other people to judge, if Lumia is the right phone for them.

    Random nightly wake-ups, even after doing the "usual" fixes.

    Have you turned off automatic maintenance? Control Panel >> Security and Maintenance >> Maintenance >> Change Maintenance Settings >> Uncheck Allow scheduled maintenance ...

  5. I had not looked at these settings before, but when I did just now I found that scheduled maintenance was set for 2 AM (which I changed to 6PM) and that the "Allow scheduled maintenance to wake the computer at the scheduled time" box was already unchecked. I didn't find an option to "turn off scheduled maintenance".
