  1. Windows randomly wakes itself from sleep


    Recently my desktop has been waking itself from sleep from time to time, and yesterday night it started, rgb fans and all, right in front of my face at 1am. I have tried many things to fix it, including disabling wake timers in advanced power settings, disabling wake for maintenence, checking wake timers through powercfg -waketimers. In the event log, the description says Wake source: Unknown. powercfg -lastwake doesnt show anything, and even though I have an administrator account, I can't disable the UpdateOrchestrator's Reboot scheduled task, which has "Wake the computer to run this task".

    :)

  2. 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.

  4. Windows randomly wakes itself from sleep

    Random sleeping

    My upgraded W10 machine has several issues NOT solved by MS updates.

    • Randomly goes to sleep.
    • Scheduled maintenance fails
    • Wake up task does NOT run
    Does anyone have a solution to these issues that will work?

    Thanks

    Rick
