    Win10 Computer will not sleep


    Hello, wondering if anyone can help me out. I'm having an issue with my computer (Win10) not idling or going into sleep mode. Biggest annoyance is not getting Discord phone notifications while afk. I've tested by setting screen shutoff to 1 min, and Discord idle timer to 1 min.

    I've tried checking 'powercfg -requests', and ran an energy report with 'powercfg -energy', tried changing all of my device power settings, unplugging all USB and network ports, tried updating and disabling everything I can think of. Any other thoughts?

    Hello.

    Does disabling the HID-Complaint Touch Screen driver resolves the issue? If yes, we suggest that you disable it and see if your device go into Sleep mode after a period of inactivity.

    We also suggest to check if the settings of the Power Options of your device are set so that the device will go into Sleep mode after a period of time. You may follow the steps below to check is Sleep mode is enabled on your device:

    • Press the Windows button + X, then click on
      Power Options.
    • Click Change when the computer
      sleeps.
    • Change the settings to your preferred settings.

    Keep us updated on the results.

    Regards.
