  1. windows sleep mode no longer working


    Is anyone else having problems with windows sleep mode. I manually set it to sleep but it snaps back on after going to sleep for a few minutes. Nothing is running when it tries to sleep and both system and monitor wake up. I am running windows 10 build 18363.959

    :)

    Windows 10 Sleep Mode no longer working

    I upgraded to Windows 10 with no issues. After about a week, sleep mode stopped working. It works fine if I force it into sleep mode by selecting Power...Sleep. But, it will no longer go into sleep on it's own once the specified time interval has elapsed.
    I tried a couple of suggestions offered on this subject:

    Under advanced settings.....Multimedia.... I set "Sharing Media" to "Allow to sleep".

    Under sleep I enabled "Hybrid Sleep".

    Neither of the above had any affect. Are there any other suggestions? Perhaps there is a way of determining which function is causing the laptop to NOT enter sleep mode?

    Thanks.

  3. Windows 7 sleep mode shutsdown

    Just a quick update: Windows no longer reverts back to the BIOS after sleep mode. I used CCleaner to fix the registry and that did the trick
