Windows 10: Win10 laptop wakes up at 3 am although no device or task is allowed to wake the system

Hi,


I thought I solved this problem a couple of weeks ago by following the instructions on this page:
https://superuser.com/questions/973009/conclusively-stop-wake-timers-from-waking-windows-10-desktop


Still, my ThinkPad woke up last night.


Below is some information about the event, including all events reported and all tasks that did run at the time of resume.
Interestingly, none of these is allowed to wake the device.
It's quite annoying when you want to wake your machine only to find out that
it was running the last 15 hours and the fans were collecting dust ...


PS C:\Windows\System32\Tasks\Microsoft\Windows\UpdateOrchestrator> powercfg -waketimers
There are no active wake timers in the system.


PS C:\Windows\System32\Tasks\Microsoft\Windows\UpdateOrchestrator> powercfg /lastwake

wake from sleep issue in windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for posting your reply. Apologize for the delay in response.

I suggest you to check which devices are configured to wake up the computer from sleep by following the steps below:

• Right click on Start icon and select Command Prompt (Admin).
• Type the command line below:

Powercfg /devicequery wake_armed

3. Check if the devices (Keyboard, Mouse, Ethernet cable) are listed.

If the system is not going to sleep and going to Hybernate, the only option to wake up is to press the Power button.

Hope the information is helpful.

 

windows task wakes up computer

Yes, I'll quote you on that link again since out of all the options to disable wake timers, this is the only definitive solution to this problem. Especially the part where you remove all ownership and write permissions from Windows to the actual task file,
otherwise Windows will very aggressively guard this task and ignore/undo all your wake timer settings, in whatever way you did them.

Again, this is why it's so baffling to me that they can't say why this task is SO important that it needs to wake up your PC no matter what.

But at least having this solution more propagated will hopefully save some people the frustrating trial and error this has been for us.
