Try to put my PC to sleep? 1 of 3 things happens: it either goes to sleep normally, it goes to sleep but wakes itself up 2 seconds later, or the PC actually just shuts down. Try to shut down my PC? 1 of 2 things happens: it either shuts down, or it restarts.
I think the problem is Windows.
The only way for me to keep my desktop off all night is for me to switch off the power supply or unplug it, sleep, hibernate, flat out turning it off, all result in a bright ass screen waking me up at 2am
You can go into the window settings until it to shut down all the way. My computer used to do that too, until I disabled the setting.
There was a video from LTT not too long ago where they contacted MS about the issue. It's supposedly due to device manufacturers not implementing the spec properly so they ended up giving up on it.
Is not just me!
It's because one of your peripherals is set to wake state.
I turned my mouse and keyboard off from this.
Now I manually have to touch my power button to wake.
Turned your mouse and keyboard off?
Turned your wake state checker to not check for keyboard and mouse?
What does "from this" mean? Curious how this works
