  1. Windows will not go to sleep I've tried everything


    Headline: my windows 10 PC will not automatically go to sleep based on the sleep timers for either "Screen" or "Sleep." It will try screen goes black for a second but then goes bask to my desktop. If I manually click the start icon and go to power/sleep, the computer will go to sleep. However it will wake itself up randomly to the login screen.


    I'm hoping there is someone who can help read a log file to determine if there is anything in there that is causing this issue. I suspect it may be hardware related as I seem to have exhausted every software related fix.


    Things I have tried:

    1. Powercfg -requests shows nothing because it actually doesn't go to sleep, it just tries, but never makes it
    2. Powercfg -lastawake shows nothing
    3. Powercfg /waketimers will just show updateorchestrator
    4. I have disabled my ethernet device from waking up the computer including magic packet
    5. I have disabled my wireless mouse and wireless keyboard from waking up the computer
    6. I have turned off the windows updateorchestrator to wake the computer
    7. I've tried turning hybrid sleep on and off
    8. I spit out a log from powercfg and all of the items said "this will not prevent your computer from sleeping"
    9. Probably several other that I can't remember


    Any experts out there?

    :)
