    Sleep: Keeps waking up!


    Hi Folks,

    Since I upgraded to 10 I have had constant issues. Mainly when I put the machine to sleep it wakes itself up automatically.

    I have banned all deviced from allowing it to wake, removed it from any workgroups and a million other fixes I have seen online. Yet I can't get it to stay asleep.

    Anyone else has this issue and fixed it? Thanks in advance!

    EDIT: after viewing logs this file: NvStreamKms.sys is set to "demand start" and the next entry is the computer waking.

    :)

  3. After the recent update my Windows 10 HP laptop doesn't wake up from sleep mode

    I also wanted to mention that when I put my laptop to hibernate instead of sleep and want to wake it up, there is the same problem - pressing the power button doesn't wake the laptop. So I have to keep it pressed until the power button's led light goes off
    and then press it again so that it powers up. But unlike after waking up from sleep mode, when my laptop wakes up after hibernate all my files and open webpages are there, and I don't have to restore them.

    Thank you,

    Govsiya

    Sleep: Keeps waking up!

    I have disabled Nvidia game streaming and issue still occurred.

    I found there seems to be a Spotify bug which sets a wake timer. Spotify are "working on it" so if you have the same issues try these two ideas.

    Could it be Windows updates? Also if it is a graphics driver, perhaps try an earlier version of the driver as a test.

    I think I got it. It was Spotify and Nvidia's game streaming service!

  7. I had the same issue, I think it might be my Anker wireless optical mouse.
    I tried my old Logitech mouse instead of my new Anker wireless mouse and my pc stayed in the sleep mode.
    I think the optical sensor still carries on working for a while, even though I'm not touching it, and wakes my pc up.
    My Anker mouse shuts down after a few minutes of not using it to save the battery. It probably keeps checking for movement.

    Sleep: Keeps waking up!

    I would disable the mouse to wake and just use keyboard to wake.

    Yeah you can!

    Visit: Device manager > Mice and other pointer devices > "Right click" Properties > Power management tab > Untick "allow this device to wake the computer"

    Screen grab:
