Windows 10: Windows 11 will not stop going to sleep

I am running a fully updated copy of Windows 11 Home, version 22H2. I have the computer set to never go to sleep when it's plugged in but often, when I'm away from the computer for some time, it will go to sleep. It doesn't do it all the time but the issue has gotten worse lately. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to stop this. I don't want the computer to sleep because I live in a rural area and have slower internet and am often downloading a game to the computer. Any help troubleshooting this would be appreciated. Thank you.

Windows 11 does not go to sleep

My Windows 11 desktop does not turn off the screen after the specified time. It also does not go into sleep mode after the specified time. I have tried all the steps suggested in this thread and still not good. I do not have any joy stick or anything like that attached. It used to work that a few months ago it quit. The only thing that happened was routine Windows updates.

 

iTunes stops playing when the computer go to sleep

Hi Ross,

Sleep mode is designed to stop all actions on a computer as it puts the device to a low-power state. Since you want to continue using a program even while your computer is locked, we suggest turning off Sleep mode by following these steps:

• Click Start.
• Go to Settings.
• Click System.
• Choose Power & Sleep from the left pane.
• Under Sleep, choose Never.

Computer stopped going into sleep mode

Hello, Kiran.

My computer is up to date and I didn't change any settings prior or after the update

I tried step one, but I haven't wait the time required for the computer to go into sleep mode. I did change the 30 minute wait to 10 minutes. So, I'll wait and see what happens
