Windows 10 - Sleep Works But Only if 5 Minutes or Less

What about the Troubleshooting tutorial steps here:

https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/fix-windows-10-sl...

I've never seen at least one them not be successful.

I had suggested first to set Display at 0, Sleep at 1 minute and Hibernate at 2 minutes and then after each step sit back to observe. I have rarely had to work all the way through the list.

Absolute thoroughness is required when troubleshooting Sleep, skipping nothing and asking back if you need any help to complete a step. We often find out later that the fix was the skipped step, so please do not skip any. If you need help performing any step
I will help.

 

Windows 11 cannot enter sleep while setting "Screen: turn off after 15 minutes"(default) and "Sleep: PC goes to sleep after 1 minute" then idle 1 minute

Hi Guys,

I am meeting an unexpected behavior: Windows 11 cannot enter sleep while setting "Screen: turn off after 15 minutes"(default) and "Sleep: PC goes to sleep after 1 minute" then idle 1 minute.

Ideally, Windows would follow the power option setting, while the system idle 1 minute, the system will go to sleep, but fail, and Windows keeps working.

Then, I change the power settings: "Screen: turn off after 1minute" and "Sleep: PC goes to sleep after 1 minute", setting done, idle 1 minute, system goes to sleep. and wakeup by KB normally. Once setting the same time value of "Sleep: PC goes to sleep after x minute" and "Sleep: PC goes to sleep after x minute", Windows goes to sleep after idle x minutes. I thought my hardware and driver were set correctly. Manual let system enter sleep, it works normally, and wakeup success.

My questions are:

1. Could someone tell me what happens of above hebavior?

2. What is the interaction between power option "turn off after" and "PC goes to sleep after"?

3. Is there any setting limitation of "Screen: turn off after x minutes" and "Sleep: PC goes to sleep after x minute"?

 

Windows 10 (sometimes) goes to sleep after only 2 minutes of inactivity

Hello Mark,

Your screensaver might be one of the possible reasons why your computer goes to sleep every time the computer is inactive. It is possible that the idle time is set every 2 minutes. Having said that, you can try adjusting the waiting time by following the
steps below and see if it makes any difference:

• Go to Control Panel, click on Appearance and Personalization.
• Select Personalization.
  
• Click on Screen Saver at the bottom right.
• Adjust the waiting time and hit Apply.
